I have been gone for so long I have almost forgotten myself...I had a series of heart problems and surgeries, but all is well now and I am feeling much better. Had to change heart doc's to get results, but I have a fantastic doc now....
Well, something exciting has happened to me and I would like to share it with you guys. I have been asked to be an ongoing contributing writer for Mixed Media Art website! I had submitted an article a few months back, and after my 4 recent heart surgeries, I was clearing out my emails and ran across the wonderfully sweet email from Michelle, asking me if I would be interested in a regular gig! So every couple of months or so I will be a part of the Mixed Media Art website with a new article about mixed media and altered art and altered books. I just hope I don't disappoint.... Have a bit of the case of the nerves, to be honest, but I just need to get busy and stop procrastinating. My first article is due March 6th, so I had better get busy!
Enough about me, I hope all of you had a wonderful holiday season and have just been happily "arting" your buns off! I have been playing with chalks lately, and have a great set of creamy, metallic chalks that came with applicators that look just like eyeshadow applicators(?), plus you can also use your fingers to smear them around. Adds just a bit of POP to those pages I have been working on like a fiend lately!
Well, it's getting late, and I need my rest, so enough for tonight, but remember-"Happy Creating"!

Welcome back, Laura! I'm so glad to hear you're doing better. I've missed your blog.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on Mixed media Art!! Can't wait to see what you do. Please let us know when it's posted.
Thanks so much Eileen!
DeleteSo glad you are on the mend and getting back to what you love. Congratulations on the gig for MMA. Looking forward to your articles. So many of my teachers said to me "get out of your head" and I remember that every time I find myself over thinking or procrastinating. I thus pass this reminder on to you in the hopes that it might help.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for the great advice-just what I needed to hear!
