One of my favorite things to do is play with clay. You may have seen my photo of these before they were glazed. What a difference a bit of color makes!

What do you do in your free time that brings you joy?

"True happiness comes from the joy of deeds well done, the zest of creating things new.” Antoine de Saint-Exupery

Awwww.....

The joys of the animal world! This little fellow is definitely breaking laws for cuteness! However, not so cute that I brought him home - sorry kids! He is a "Shih-Poo" which is a cross between a poodle and a shih-tzu. He was simply adorable and tons of fun to play with. And so soft!

What animals make you smile the most??

Ever consider what pets must think of us? I mean, here we come back from a grocery store with the most amazing haul - chicken, pork, half a cow. They must think we're the greatest hunters on earth! ~Anne Tyler, The Accidental Tourist

Stronger Than I Think...

I'm taking part in a collaborative art journal project at Coach Creative Space. It's called "Journey of Journals" and it began in June 2010. Seven people are in my group - two from the UK, one from Canada, and 4 from the US. What a wonderful journey it's been! We each chose a topic for our journal. We start our journals with two page spreads, then mail it to the next person on the list, who then gets to add two more page spreads. Eventually, your journal is returned to you!

Some of the journals have already arrived back in the hands of the original owner, so now I can share some of page spreads that I've worked on (I'm still waiting for mine to come home...it should arrive sometime in April!)

The photos I'm showing here are from one of my page spreads in Paula's journal. Her topic was "Strength." Thank you to Paula in New Mexico for allowing me to add to your journal!


Have you ever worked on a collaborative art project? I'd love to hear about it!

Art is the collaboration between God and the artist, and the less the artist does the better.
