Down with the sickness

I have been very sick this past week with a serious cold and sinus infection. I even missed a day of work, and well you know it is serious when that happens.

I have more backgrounds coming, and there will be 31 of them. Sadly I am not able to make them consecutively, but that is OK!

2014 is about not feeling bad for what I do not get done and being thrilled with what I am able to do!

So hoping I get this cold kicked for good back to normal by Monday! Tired of sounding like either a little girl on helium or a zombie!

Bear with me, I will get there!

Day 6 is coming for backgrounds, 31 days...sigh!

Work is always hectic, we are down some office staff, but it willbe OK!

School, busy busy and annoying and I am upset about one of my grades...but it will be OK!

On a positive note, I have been creating, just not had time to edit videos.

And my birthday was last Friday and I enjoyed i! :D

Day Four

Day Four just posted! Enjoy!

Day Three - late but posted!

Day Three just posted.  Sorry issues all around tonight! I had three epic fails and finally just gave up and decided to paint a piece of 22x30 Fabriano so I could make a 16 page journal following Teesha Moore's instructions. I like this style of journaling. Fabriano Hot Press is also my favorite watercolor paper so far although I do use other kinds and I will be using different materials in the next few videos.

I will show you at the end of the month the journal I end up with. My plan is to use this for a journal for this month and see how that goes, no promises on that though, but regardless of what is done i will show you it at the end of the month. :D

Yes I misspelled Fabriano at the beginning of the video, I am tired!

Day Two

DAY TWO just got posted to YouTube!

It did not go as planned and I am still looking for the right camera angle I can work with and make happen. This was not it, so I learned that lesson!

I did not like the crayon I used, I am not sure if it is because it was cheap or if I just needed to be more aggressive with it and use more pressure.


It is all a process and the more I paint, the more I have and the more I learn, so that is what it is all about!
