I'm a Failure, Failure, Failure! That thought has been running through my mind for days. I finally gave in and broke down on Monday and just cried. I can't do it. I can't do any of it! If I just had one thing to do, I would be so great at it! If I was just a mom, even a homeschooling mom, I could be so great! If I was just an artist, and had … [Read more...]

Latest Project, a dog clothes memory quilt
What am I working on currently? I knew you were dying to know, so here's the latest! I've been cutting squares for a small memory quilt. It's made from dog clothes! Not the first I've made, either. A great keepsake to remember your beloved canine! But, perhaps that's why my cat was so interested in helping? How dare I bring anything with that "dog … [Read more...]
All About Dinosaurs
As I've mentioned, we've been learning about dinosaurs the last few weeks. Along with checking out every book and movie we could find at the library, we bought and played Dinosaur Bingo, found fossils at a local State Park, (see my post about fossils), found a book with facts and games for my son's Leap Pad (pre-Ipad type of electronic book), and … [Read more...]
Teaching Art Classes this September!
I just mentioned this in my last post, but decided it was deserving of it's very own post. I'll be teaching art classes next month: every Tues in Sept 2012 at 10:30am at the Discovery Learning Center in Santa Cruz, CA. An introduction to working with different materials. I'm using up some supplies left over from the summer camps I taught and … [Read more...]
Art Camp 2, SO FUN!
Such a great week in Art Camp 2! I had even more kids this time, but it went smoother than the first week. This week had the theme "faces". We made some amazing masks, self portraits, portraits of friends, and even threw in tie dye just for fun! We also had a nature art day, where we made hedgehogs with pine cones and clay and owl masks with nut … [Read more...]

Art Camp was a blast!
Art camp was craziness! It was great fun and a wonderful learning experience for me. I have taught small classes before, but never had this many students. I think I did pretty well! I survived the week and my students seemed to have a good time. I chose messy projects that their parents would most likely not want to do at home, like splatter paint … [Read more...]

Beautiful Blue!
Finished a scarf I've been working on! Woohoo, happy dance! It's for a client and I love it so much I wish I could keep it! It's so soft and I just love the color. But, I started another one! I'm using a different pattern, but will definitely have the fun tassels again. I just love this yarn. … [Read more...]
