More art!

Boy with Balloons

These are drawn with an eyedropper, dried and colored with watercolor.

Nuts?

Mrs. Peanut understands."


I am switching gears and I am only in first gear right now. I hope to crank it up to third gear by mid Feb! I am focusing my energy on the stationery market. I feel it calling me and I am ready to jump back in but this time a little differently. I am working on a portfolio to take to the National Stationery Show http://www.nationalstationeryshow.com/ and Surtex http://www.surtex.com/

Can't wait to network and see what this market is all about from a larger sense. Of course with my business Stick Together Designs (www.sticktogetherdesigns.com) I learned a bit about manufacturing and selling. This time I am interested in licensing. I am reading the Licensing Business Handbook by Karen Raugust. It is interesting to see who makes what and how it works. I hope to be a part of the who makes what and how it works, soon.

What a spin I'm in!

Oh Deer!

Dead or Alive

I don't feel I have much to write this month. I am focused on some projects and I am happy. The art class I teach is going really well and growing too. I am writing a bit more than drawing these days but I think that will change soon as I have some projects on the horizon. On a totally personal note I bought some skis and I'm in heaven, except I'm not dead.

A tribute to Our Sacred Circle

Lets ski, lets be free. Me knows how to see thee. I see it up, I see it down, I see a bog about a town. The flavor is sweet and snowy. Lets now meet there in this town. It is a wonder to behold, bog and all.

I can see. I can see something I would not have otherwise seen, if not for thanking 6 people. I told them how grateful I am for all of them. I then understood our link. It was a need for me. I fulfilled this simple need and look at what I got! They say you loose your friends when you stop growing with them. We stopped growing-this group. I never felt badly about this it was just what it was-I feel good that I knew that too.

For a moment I understand where I am. I cannot see everything like those plateaus we periodically stand upon where we can see everything clear as a bell, where it all makes sense. This is a mini enlightenment, however, it is big bliss.
