Life is an adventure

I showed my latest painting to my husband, who by the way is a big supporter of what I do and critiques pretty much every piece..Sometimes I take his advice and other times not so much:) I will usually show my daughters my artwork as well, but they love it all so it's hard to get a good critique.
Anyways, back to the painting...Here's one of my latest pieces...

I love it!! He was like, "I don't get it?" A house on top of a cow's head? That doesn't make sense! Well, this is one time I didn't take his advice...I'm trying to stretch my imagination and make it even more whimsical. What do you think?

My summer (better late than never post)

So as most of you know, I offered 7 (3 day) weeks of summer camp this past summer, and boy was it a lot of F.U.N!!!

I admit there were many days I came home with a pounding headache and had to take a 2 hour nap BUT it was soo worth it. Here are some pictures of my summer. I was lucky enough to have rented an amazing space that used to be a restaurant and I had a huge open space for the kids to paint, 2 restrooms, all of my supplies in a storage bin, a full kitchen and a roomy porch for us to play games and eat our lunch! Mostly I had girls sign up...but I got lucky enough to snag a few boys in a few of my sessions. It was cute to see them act as though the camp was gonna be boring with all those girls but believe me, by the end of the day they were really enjoying themselves. I hope to draw a bigger boy crowd next summer. I had a ton of fun getting to hang out with these talented artists and we really worked together in making the camp a place for them to experiment, create, make new friends, & most importantly be themselves. I can't wait to plan next summer's camps! Until then, I am hosting my 2nd annual holiday workshop for grades K-7th. It will be held at my new location, Bachman Community Center on Dec 21st (k-2nd) and 22nd (3-7)from 10-2.  The cost is $65 and lunch is included. A $25 deposit holds your spot!

Enjoy the pictures!
