Life Book 2015

Good morning, my darlings!!!

I am SOOOOO EXCITED about Life Book 2015!

Oh, but maybe I had better back up a little bit!!

January 1, 2015 I will be embarking on a one-year online journey! A journey to learn more about art, art journaling, and mixed-media techniques! In the process I hope to learn more about myself, and meet some really cool new people who share a passion for mixed-media and living a creative life!!

Life Book 2015 is being offered by Willowing Arts at Willowing.org, by one Ms. Tam Laporte!! This AMAZING year-long series is going to be taught, in weekly increments, by, not 1, not 2, but 26 AWESOME mixed-media gurus, a lot of those names I am already very familiar with, and I can NOT WAIT to learn more from them!! I am a sponge as I sit at your feet!! Teach me oh great Miyagi!!! 🙂

What else can I say??? The registration cost is EXTREMELY low when you think about how much content you are being given! — I should probably add that I am not affiliated with this class or Willowing in any way shape of form, and that these are all just my personal opinions! 🙂

But….Man, I am so excited because this journey starts in exactly two months!!! I cannot wait!!! Feel free to join me – registration is still open!! Maybe I will see you there!

I will be sharing some of my projects here with you, so subscribe to this blog so you don’t miss one minute of creative, juicy goodness!!!

Here is to continuing to live This Beautiful Life! 🙂
