Some of my fave art sites

Don't you just love window shopping? I love to visit the sites of other artists and craftspeople. It's inspiring, challenging and refreshing to my artistic sensibilities. Here are some places I like to go:
Oh my goodness I could go on and on. Feel free to leave a comment with your link or a link to an artist you enjoy.

new resolutions to jumpstart my art




Wanted:


time and energy to make lots of terrific art

I was thinking how sad I have been that I have not been able to keep up my art as I would like, for reasons I am not ready to reveal. My studio has been languishing and so has my right brain!

That said, I'm listing ways I can revive those creative juices, so here's my proposal to myself. The idea is to finish the year like I started it: strong.
  • Not to buy any new supplies for the rest of the year (except paper and adhesive). I have waaaaaay too much stuff!

  • To make at least one thing each month that is not obligated to someone or something.

  • To add to my etsy store each wekk until the end of the year.

  • To be early with my swaps.

  • To complete my Jesse Tree ornaments before the end of November.
I hope to be able to keep up this pace. It's exciting to think about how the "no new stuff" restraint will stretch my creativity.
