My cousin recommended a site to me called Colour Lovers. It is so amazing. It is basically a social networking site, but with a twist. You get to make art on it. It is all about color, color palettes and making patterns with those palettes. It is really addicting, so you are warned! This is my favorite palette I have… Read more →

Holy Moly Mackeroly
I was talking to my Dad today, and something he said made me think of this page spread in my Journal the Journey journal. So I thought I would share. I did this spread after receiving one of my favorite, inspirational how to sell your art books, Holy Moly Mackeroly. It is by Gloria Page. If you can get a… Read more →
Art House Journal-Random Pages
These are just some random pages in My Art House Journal. In one of them you can see my frustration at the doctors office. I kept have these test done, where they stick needles in you and then, run electricity through the needles. Not fun! I was waiting to go in after x-rays and dreading the needle portion when I… Read more →

I always wanted to cut a window in the front. Never have, and now the inside cover is fairly decorated, so maybe… Read more →
The Kimbell
Here are more pictures from the same trip to the Kimbell Art Museum. I love this statue in the open air eating area. She is so relaxing to look at. Great food there too, although it can not compare to the food at the Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth. I had one of the best meals of my life… Read more →
Zipper Mural
This has to be one of my favorite murals of all time. Although, to be honest, I really like most murals I see. This is in Fort Worth, somewhere… It was taken from the bus window on the way to the Kimbell Art Museum. I can not tell you where exactly, I do not know the area well enough. I… Read more →
More Dad Pages!
I love this spread that my father did in our joint journal. I get a kick out of the actual train tracks on the page, every time I look at it. Plus he talks about ancient history, which I love to hear about. On the left is a picture of my Dad with Uncle Richard, his best friend, and he… Read more →
