New work

Back to work!

As the days begin to get longer (even if by a minute or two) I find myself becoming a bit more inspired. In preparing for an upcoming show I went to have some work framed. Talk about sticker shock! Even with all the discounts it still was expensive. So as I tell myself all the time, but never listen "PLAN FIRST" the size of your work so if you do want to display it, the art will fit nicely into a standard frame size. I have found it is not too terrible to have just the mats cut. So hopefully this route works out for the other four pieces which are not standard sizes, and need framing. Check out some new work below! They are all acrylic mixed media pieces.

Pumpkin Oatmeal Cookies

My Goal for the upcoming year is to start working on my blog again.  I have been totally into pinterest lately and have found some great recipes.  I just found this Pumpkin Oatmeal Cookie recipe using white chocolate chips, and craisins.  They came out great!  I found the original recipe on the below site!

I also discovered this great app for the iPhone titled "over" you can add text onto you images.  So much fun!
