What really makes you angry about the world?

What would you do in Paris?
My dream if I went to Paris for two weeks is to spend it in Bookstores. I know an artist like me and all I can think about is being able to read all my children's books classics in French. I think that would be the only way I could learn to read and speak … Continue reading What would you do in Paris?

And that makes 10!
Wow, that was a lot harder then I thought, and even though I didn't finish in 30 days, I did create 10 new posts for my blog in the month of August.

Sometimes Even an Artist Needs Inspiration
I checked this amazing book out of the library the other day. Full of inspiration, techniques, art projects and ideas, it's given me new inspiration to get back to work.
