Just a reminder to check out my calendarof events for classes and Mixed Media Monday Dates.  I will see you next Monday, July 27th!

Until then…do something creative everyday!

Smiling happens naturally when you complain less.  There is never a need to complain about life.  Doing so changes nothing.  Instead, spend your moments actually living its beauty.  Find the wisdom and strength to embrace the present.  If you’re being pulled in every direction by forces beyond your control, take time to realign yourself with what you value most in life.  What is important in your life is what you decide is important.  Nothing can overwhelm you unless you let it.”
