35 degrees out= two extension cords+ floor lamp + stubborn determination to CREATE! 
Yup, that's me. I started my Mom's Christmas gift today on my table saw inside the shed. (Decided against the space heater due to how much sawdust I was generating.) After an hour and a half I've got a good start and a big mess. Feels great!

Praise!

This picture it titled "Praise".
I tried to convey the joy & peace one feels when actively praising God. 
How do you praise God? 

finished!

My boyfriend innocently got out a puzzle. Not knowing that it becomes and obsession! Thankfully I've finished it now. On to making artwork!

Pom Pom Nativity

Complete with sheet music angel wings and a map treasure box for each wise man. Yes, the Christ child is just head & pompom. Yes, one sheep keeps falling over. I had so much fun! 
See what you can create out of what you have sitting around the house. 

Unclutter 2014

DONE!

I have finished cleaning out the basement. If i have not made art out of it and it's been sitting there for over a year, then it is getting recycled, given away, or trashed. No more little stuff sitting around reminding me of all the projects I haven't done.

Now i will focus on art i CAN do. I will pursue this art with daily diligence. I will post the results here, hopefully weekly.

creativity jumpstart

Just finished the book Steal Like an Artist by Austin Kleon. You should read it! Even if you don't consider yourself "creative".

Needless to say I've been doing better at working out than producing art. But I will be carving out some time, attempt daily, to sketch and paint and make kinetic art. I'll try to do better at posting the art or doodles I make.

Quilt finished!

DONE! 
This quilt has fun memories on it but was a nightmare to make. Just don't look too close at craftsmanship. (the next one will better.) One 2014 Goal complete!
