I have been delayed in sharing my trip to Painting Palooza 2016 in Oklahoma City, OK with DecoArt.  I wanted to share the fun I had at this inaugural painting show.  I adore the founders of this show and appreciated them asking me to come and accepting two of my classes!

I taught a DecoArt Media Journaling class that was sponsored by DecoArt, Inc., Dynasty Brush and Canson.  What a great group to start out with

My second class was a DecoArt Chalky Finish Frame Class……

and here is the fun we had HERE…….

I had the pleasure of lots of demonstrations at the DecoArt Booth.  As always I loved everyone I met, answering questions, working in my pajamas in the dark (Yes a transformer blew) and sharing my passion with so many amazing people!  HERE is just some of that fun:

Special thanks to these ladies (and Jeanette! who is not pictured) for pushing me to do things I love and share with this great community of painters in my own way!

Happiness is letting go of what you assume your life is supposed to be like right now and sincerely appreciating it for everything that it is.”
