I am not gonna lie...I have fallen down on the tiny habits thing. I am almost 6 months in, halfway. I knew this would probably happen. I even gave myself a little grace period to skip adding new habits for 8 weeks(broken up as needed) I just know myself. I will let...

Getting back to the art journals

Art Journaling for fiber artists., How to think like an artist, The Business of being an artist, What I am working on | 2 Comments

Confession time....I have fallen hard off the art journaling. While I would like to be able to say I am one of those people who can not live without her paper brain, lately that just has not been the case. I have always admired the sketchbooks of artists who are...
