Valentines I've been working on...

They will be available soon, at shows, in my etsy shop and at some local shops and galleries. Some Lovey Dovey prints &  posters too!

If you are nuts for him or her...

or if you want to make creatures of love...

or if you Love them madly...

and lots...

or have had your heart oprned...

or only strut your stuff for just one...

and love those sugary kisses...

yeah, yeah!

The tree is down



Always a bitter sweet event. I know it is time, but I hate to see my favorite beads  packed away until next year.

Beautiful still...

Lovely really...

My dear friend Julie was here for the Holiday's with her niece Abby, and made this beautiful thing. I am always impressed with flower  arranging ability, as that talent eludes me. Also impressed that it is still alive...she made this Dec. 23 and we are still enjoying the loveliness.
So a little pretty to share with 2 of my favorite January birthday pals...Happy Birthday Mom & Clay!

 Almost finished with my sketch book for The Sketch Book  Project. Looking to send it off in a day or so.
And this lovely tin was a gift from a dear friend. My Prismacolors fit beautifully.

And so it begins...



I am not one for resolutions, but I do like to have a plan with purpose and challenge. Though I won't be sharing  a list, as I work myself thru my purposeful plan and as I undertake a new endeavor or meet a goal   I will  happily keep you posted.
