The Godmother says...........
Time to make merry and bright! Don't be idle when you know how many things need your attention right now! You can be sure that Santa and his band of elves are working all day and night to make your Christmas just right. Do SomeThing Creative EveryDay!!!
Holidays on my Mind
I am starting to think of the holidays with only 23 days until Christmas. I want my blog to have a festive look but I am not too sure about this color green. The red which I would naturally chose is way over the top!!! Starting to receive Christmas cards and it has put me in the mood to gather all the cards together and get them in the mail, too. I want everyone to enjoy their cards before they gather so many that mine gets lost in the pile! While you are thinking of the gifts and goodies you want to give to your loved ones, please remember those that can't, and give to those less fortunate than we in the art community who definitely know how to share with others.
Just a thought.

New Moon Countdown
There are only 15 days until the New Moon comes to the theatres. I can't wait. I am not sure if I will go that first day. Only because I would rather not watch the movie with a lot of screaming young girls. Or maybe that is the way this movie should be seen. I can tell you that I was screaming when I read the book. lol Maybe I will read the book one more time before the movie comes out on 11/20, heaven knows, I have read it about 6 times already. If you haven't read the Twilight books, what are you waiting for?
I'll say...Vanity Fair
Maybe you didn't like Robert Pattinson as the vampire. Alright, how do you like him now just being his self? I think he's adorable.

My Favorite Vampire
Isn't he the cutest vampire you have ever laid eyes on? Oh, come on, witches, you know he is. Edward from the Twilight saga, if you don't know him, you really should. Just read the books and sit back and enjoy yourself.
Happy Halloween
Happy Halloween to all my witch and warlock friends!!! It's time for tricking and treating your friends with wicked deeds and sweet candies. Hope your day is ghoulish and fun. Enjoy the day, love from yout Vampire Queen.

F A L L
Well. summer is almost over. The trees in my neighborhood are starting to turn lovely shades of bronze and red. I know everyone loves their summertime but I am definitely an autumn girl.
I was looking for some 'older but goodies' of artwork for the upcoming fall season to put everyone in the mood, it seems when I cleared up some of my files that those images got deleted, oops, somehow. That means I have good reason to create more!!! Hope you are all being creative everyday.

A Very Special Gift to Me
If you really know me, you know that I'm Twilight obsessed, really it's okay, it's a excellent obsession to have, if you need an obsession. Everyone knows my goddaughter, Kat, and her wonderful art work and this is a little special gift she made for me. I love Edward, the vampire, and this delicious photo of Edward and Bella, well, I enjoying looking at this picture all day long. Kat got the photo card and dressed up an old picture frame with all those flowers. She patiently drilled a hole for each flower and then glued the flowers in place all around the frame, a very lush presention. That's a little glass apple, too. I piled the pink ribbon on top of the frame so you can see how it will hang in a place of honor in my art space. I love you, Kat, for spoiling me.
"Fishy" Art Exchange
I want to show you my art friend Michel for her wonderful 'fish' picture. I found the embossed fish at Paper Source in a sale bin. I just liked them and I told M about the fish and she was intrigued by the idea of using the fish in an art exchange. And there you have it!!! I just love that we chose different views of the frame, vertical and horizontal, cool. Most of the time, Michel and I created art from opposite side of the spectrum, which always makes the exchange a bit of a mystery. I thought with the fish, we would both have a 'water' theme but I am the only one that went swimming. Thanks, Michel, for sharing your art with me. What's next????
The Mermaid Club
Just a bit of 'fishy' art. The fun part was gluing the images directly to the back of the glass. A bit tricky, it's hard to put glue on the face of your image and then try to position it just right on the glass. It takes a bit of thought as you are adding the layers. But who isn't up for a challenge once in awhile.

Just a Thought

This is the back of the canvas board with Kat in bed. It explains quite clearly why she is fast asleep and doesn't want to be waken until 2 weeks for her thesis is due. The second year of her master's program Kat will be writing her thesis about....well, it escapes me right now, but I will let you know all about it in the coming year. Sorry about that, Kat. I am very proud of Kat and love her to pieces. I love you, Kat.
R I S D Kat
R I S D stands for Rhode Island School of Design. My goddaughter, Kat, which I talk about all the time, just finished the first year of her masters program at RISD. She worked very hard completing her finals and presentations just about a week ago. That meant long hours in the studio for days on end, forsaking sleep. The students at RISD say that it really means Reason I am Sleep Deprived. I have to agree with that. And ever since Kat told me that I have always wanted to do something for her using RISD. Well, it took some time but I had the idea of Kat finally getting the sleep she had missed for two or three weeks. Yes, that's Kat in bed!!! I know it's a stretch, but it is truly art from my heart to her heart. And my sweet goddaughter just loves it and that's enough for me.

I can't tell you how long I have wanted a banner for my blog! Isn't this stunning? The gentle woman looks just like me having my morning tea, quiet and serene. I came upon her at Art Tea Life's blog and I was captured. So, I treated myself to an early birthday present (I always get myself the very best presents!) I love it. Thank you S. you have made my day.
