happy hallowe'en

the sky's the limit

i can't believe this is my 100th blog entry!

when i started this back in april i had no idea

where this would take me

it was just something new i wanted to try

part of my evolution
i've never been one for words and was a little

intimidated and scared

but with the help and encouragement from everyone

i can't imagine not doing this!

the blog world is so amazing

i've been inspired, learned so much and

have "met" the most wonderful people

special thanks to

my friend lennie who got me started

marie my photo shop guru, friend,

cheering section and inspiration

denise , deryn and carmi

encaustic class

it was a great class today

i really love texture and was amazed on

how much can be done with wax

with just a little practice and patience

i was excited to see how it evolved

i can't wait 'til next class so i can experiment more

morning walk

class mates

with and be inspired by

information and ideas

full moon madness

the past week i've been making tons jewelry and just realized

where all this creative energy has been coming from

the full moon started last tuesday

and since i am a moon child it's no wonder i've

finished over 20 necklaces and

2 encaustic painting

and tonight worked on starting 10 more bracelets

it seems i just can't get enough

you know it's only 10 more weeks 'til christmas

and yes i know i said a "bad" word

but today it snowed!!!!!

resin heaven!

i'm was happy to see that all my resin pieces this morning!

just a few, every-so-faint air bubbles

for my first time, i think i did pretty good

i work last night making the chain

and hanging embellishments

for the "angel" necklace above

it's one of my favorite photos and enjoyed

creating in a whole new style

i was really inspired by jane and

would definitely take another class with her
