The wonders.
I am back!
While in Phoenix we stayed at a friends house. Upon entering her front door my guy noticed this mother and baby and it is a good thing I snapped a picture because the next day that li'l bird was fledged. Other great animals we saw? Bats flying over the pool while we took a wee skinny dip, a hummer buzzed me-I was that interesting, and a frog owned the pool one crisp desert morning overlooking the pool with coffee.
I taught Soy Wax with Paint at Art Unraveled. Don't I look sorta sexy in this pose? And I am in an apron, no less.
I love this event and the people it draws. I felt as though it gave me permission to work outside my norm. Today I will buy myself a Dremel tool, because Belinda, and Jane use one and I think I need one too. Not only that but I need two part self leveling epoxy, gold leaf... uh. hmmm.
Wait till you see what this trip made me make!
Here is a sample I made in class. Belinda and some of the other artists in my class turned me on to Jacquard's Halo line of paint. And you can see the exuberance with which I embraced it. What Whoa~ A trip to the paint store is in order!
Saw this one on Flickr, I think, but not the previous one on FB. It's lovely though, and you look absolutely cool and chic! (Is that how you spell that??)
Someday we'll meet up again!
Please post on the Dremel uses. I have a cool one from my father-in-law, but have not yet cracked it open.
The fabric is awesome!
Looks like you are rockin' the 40! Go Melly! Go Melly!
