Happy 2017!!

I hope you are having a great beginning to this new year! We had a lovely holiday season and I even managed to squeeze in a bit of painting too! Here is a journal piece I am working on from the online course Sketching and Collage: A Mini-Course on the Jeanne Oliver Creative Network. You have to create an account but it’s free and so very worth it. I have taken many a course and have loved every single one of them. Within this one I’ve learned how to do an image transfer, paint a face with charcoal and gesso and a few other handy techniques. I love learning new ways to create so I am always open to taking a class here and there. This one has definitely been worth it!!

I am still working on this piece in my art journal. The eyes are wonky but that’s okay, it’s not finished but I will post again when it is complete.
We had a great Christmas and the Tofurky was delish! Sorry for the less than great pic here but I took this in low light and didn’t want my meal to get cold! It was sooooo good! Those are my sweet boys! ❤ We love board games and this one had been on our list for years. It’s called Labyrinth by Ravensburg and it’s so very fun!  I treated myself to the Witches’ Calendar this Christmas! Somehow that sentence sound like a bit of an oxymoron… I usually don’t buy calendars for myself because I often use my phone and computer to check dates but I just couldn’t help myself when I saw this one. The illustrations are beautiful and each month includes moon phases, Sabbats and so much more. Plus, there is a spell included for each month. OOOOOO-weeeee to me! Many blessings to you and your’s! May you all have a magical year!

Happy creating!!
