A Magical Little Contest

Readin’ thru the comments over at Artsyville, I happened across mention of a contest, so of course the chance at something free lured me over to a great artsy/mom website that has potential to be a Monday Muse once I pick that back up in December. We Blog Artists is giving away one of their…

Advice from a Muse

One of my beloved Monday Muses, Miss Aimee of Artsyville, recently posted some materials she created for a workshop on lettering she taught at KU. One of the hand-outs she created was a stream of consciousness instructional “lecture” on how to just let go and create. I am totally stealing her words and applying them…
