Art Moms & Friends Holiday Boutique


Some of my favorite
work ever.


I have shipped off
in Sioux Falls, SD.
{For the next 3 holiday shopping weekends}



A year ago . . .




I experimented . . .





making my first mixed media collage.





What a year it has been!




I remember how oddly
scared I felt when
I bought my first art supplies.



Fighting feelings and weird thoughts
like,

who do you think you are?




And showing my art the first time
feeling like a 37 year-old-child
with a
{Click "lemonade stand" above & you can read about that}



Every step of this journey
has felt extremely vulnerable.
Yet authentic.
True.
Wholehearted.
And that is just
how
I
want
to
be.

~ Birdhouse Art ~


The gloss medium on this one
is not even dry . . .

so it is literally dripping
with
newness.


I was so afraid to use the
beads and glitter.

Afraid it would be too much . . .

But I decided to be

fearless . . .


The wings of His grace

fly me

when


I take

flying leaps

of

faith.


Creating like crazy
for
Sturgis, SD, Chamber Holiday Open House
Friday & Saturday.
And sending more to
Art Moms & Friends Holiday Boutique
in Sioux Falls, SD.

January will be
Artist of the Month at Sturgis Public Library.

And hoping for another BIG event in January.
Hope to make an announcement
if/when I get in . . .
and if not,
there is always
2013.
