okay folks.. you know its summer time when it's over a week between posts! lol..
last week we headed to the mountains of Northern Utah and camped and boated for 4 days with some great friends of ours! It was the first time we have been to bear lake and oh my heck the water there is BEAUTIFUL!
It reminded me of the water in the Grand Caymans.. so blue and beautiful ..loved walking the beach..
and I surfed the best yet! AND guess what else? Ben and I surfed together! he surfs goofy.. and I am lefty.. so he surfed on one side of the wake and I surfed on the other at the same time! Have to post that video for you! So cool!
well now I am home (got home last night) and today we are headed to Chicago for the summer addition of CHA (craft and hobby association).. going to see all the cool new mixed media products out there and order them for our store and kit club! SO.. once again.. this poor blog will be left unattended.. BUT before I left I wanted to come on and say "Hi".. and check in :)
AND also let you know that this week is the FINAL week that my online workshop.. Your Living Canvas Workshop, will be available this summer!
It won't be available again until Mid October..and when it does it will be an entirely NEW classroom with new students and new facebook group page. SO if you have friends that have been taking the workshop and you want to join them.. this week is the last week to join! Because the next time the workshop opens it will be in its very own classroom!
Art and I decided to do it this way when we re-open it because we want to create a personal experience again.. with our second group.. so again.. if you have friends who joined in the first workshop that officially debuted in May.. and you want to join them.. OR if you have been thinking about doing this as a summer project.. THIS IS THE LAST WEEK! And remember when you join, you will have a full year to access the classroom!
So come join us.. the first alumni group! and speaking of them.. I wanted to share a little of what they have been creating!!

Caroline Westin
Robin Blackman

In this 6 week course, Art and I teach you how to create your living canvas thought journaling and life changing exercises.. AND art techniques as well!
here is a sneak peek of just a FEW Of the things you will create during this class! Several canvas projects and lots of art journaling pages!
Each week has its own new set of projects and journaling exercises from Art!
you can read more about this workshop and sign up HERE!
well I hope you all have a very happy week.. summer is so crazy for me.. mainly because I just have made the commitment to spend most of my time with my family.. they have these 2 months off school and its important for me to enjoy them!
NEXT week I will be posting about three new upcoming workshops I have planned for early fall! One actually starts in mid August (a mini bracelet Jewerly class!).. another class starts in mid September and is a holiday ART class.. which is a 3 week course where I teach you how to create holiday scenes for halloween, fall and christmas (think snowmen, santa's, angels.. pumpkins, whimsical cats and more!) .. gonna be SO fun! AND the third class will be another class by Junelle Jacobson! Art of Wild Abandonment Two!! It starts in Mid October! SO plenty of fun things lined up for fall.. to keep your creative juices flowing!!
Have a wonderful week!
happy Monday!
Maybe you have never really understand my existence.
