Hello chickees,
I have finally finished unpacking and have started working on some art projects. I can't believe I managed to fit in all my art paraphanalia in my little room--I love it--it's cozy but has plenty of room for me to store everything I need and I can move around it comfortably. Best of all thanks to my hubby, it's all mine!
Right now I'm finishing up on my version of a smash book (a.k.a. junque journal). It's been so fun! I plan to do a couple more--I think the next one will be a fabric smash book. I'll also be working on a new painting for my logo, as well as start on my new dollhouse.
I've got lots of plans for the coming months, so keep popping in to see pics of my new art projects. I appreciate your comments and would love to hear from you.
I'll be posting pics soon......
Hugs,
Abby

Finally Moved
Hey everyone!
We finally completed our move, and I am as we speak in the middle of unpacking and decorating. Although our new nest is much smaller than our last place we like it much better--I feel like I can wrap my arms around it and it is not so beyond me. I will be better able to manage the housekeeping and have more time for my ministry and my art work. When I am done with the decorating I'll post some pics.
My hubby is working on my computer so I can get on wireless, so I am not writing to you from my home computer. As soon as he finishes I'll write to you from my new art studio. I can hardly wait until it's all set up--right now you can imagine what a mess it is.
I hope you are all staying cool.
Toodles,

The Big Move
Hi everyone,
In two weeks we move to our new place! We've been living mostly out of boxes for the past three months, so I'm excited to start organizing and decorating our new little nest. Even though we are downsizing and the art studio will be smaller than the one I've had for the last decade, my hubby surprised me by saying I can have the whole room to myself! One more reason why I think I'll keep him for another decade or so (tee-hee).
After I get out from under all the boxes I'll share some pics with you. I will probably do my art studio first--or maybe the bedroom--or the dining room--hmmmmm--maybe the kitchen--where to begin, I want to do it all...............

I'm Moving
Hello chickees,
Just wanted to let everyone know I'll be moving within the next few months. I also thought I would share a peek of my art studio. I'll be moving to a smaller place so I don't know if all my artwork will fit in my new art studio(sigh! I'll miss my room). Anyhow, here's a peek at my current studio. When I set up my studio in our new place I'll post some pics.....enjoy!

Art Journal Pics
Hello chickees,
Here are some more pics for you... There is a pic of my first moleskine, as well as some art journal pages. The first pic is of a large Estee Lauder black cosmetic case my hubby found for me at a Goodwill shop, which I quickly painted and collaged. Enjoy!
I can't wait to share with you my ATC 4x4 art dolls. They are so fun to make and quick to boot! I'm working on several projects at the moment and hope to post more pics soon. I really appreciate your comments, so please keep them coming!
Ciao,

My Tribute To Artists
Hello my beauties,
Today I thought I would pay tribute to all the lovely and talented woman who have inspired my art journey. There are so many artists out there with with so much to offer who don't even know of their gifts because they are too afraid. They are afraid of being called childish, silly, or someone who wastes their time in such trivial endeavors.
I say thank you to each and every one of those wonderful artists who have stepped out there, sometimes beyond their comfort zone to explore and risk for the joy of their art. Thank you for sharing and blessing us with your beautiful expressions of art.
These are some of the woman who have helped to inspire my art. I discoverd most of these gracious woman on YouTube. There is no particular order, since all of these gifted woman have helped to impact me in my art discovery in some way or fashion.
July from itsaworkofart, Suzi Blu from SuziBluTube, Claudine Hellmuth, Paula from JournalArtista, Megan from My CreativeBliss, Kelly Rae Roberts who is the author of Taking Flight, last but not least Violette from CreativeBoho.
If you have any questions about how to reach these woman, please e-mail me.
