It's snowing..........again! Thankfully my neighbor shoveled my drive-way and walks.
I have great neighbors. Which brings me to this weeks post. St. Valentine's  Day.
I think we could all use a little more love in our lives. Giving and receiving. A gal in my
neck of the woods spends almost every waking hour of her life feeding the hungry
and homeless of Ogden, Utah through her organization called Love Soup. Every Wednesday
she and her hubby take four gigantic pots of soup to the Genesis Project food bank and
feed the people who are desperately in need of a hot meal and comfort. You are my hero
Cindy. If you would like to contribute time or financially please go to LoveSoup.net.

Please enjoy the goodies I have made for this post. I hope they make your heart warm and your face smile! Thanks for looking! Becci

It's cold here across the Wasatch Front!! So, what do I do? Drink a super cold 
Diet Dr. Pepper, and buy Golden paint! Can a girl have too much paint or Diet Dr. Pepper?
I think not!! So I am off to use my new paint and drink more Diet DR. Pepper and 
put on a good movie for inspiration!!! I hope you enjoy the new post!!! Becci

The title of this piece is "Always". For me, this invokes the work and also the beauty of making
and sharing and enduring a life with the person you love.
 

This piece is titled "Moo". My favorite time in my life, growing up, was on my Grandma's farm.
I could roam, breath, and be myself. Exploring the barns, and outbuildings, and corrals was heaven!

I titled this piece "Grandma's Wall". I love old homes. I used plaster as the background. The cracks
and texture reminds me of  the plaster walls in older homes. The plaster takes paint and other
medium very well, and when sanded it takes on a time worn look! Tim Holtz Frosted Film was used
to cover the piece when it was finished to give it a soft ethereal look.

 

Art.....it makes me happy! It's therapy! I love art
supplies. Especially paper, any kind of paper. Old paper
is best. The patina, the feel, even the smell. One of my
favorite things to do is going to the art store and staring
at all the colors of paint, pastels, pencils, markers, and
ink.

I have been creating art since I was young. Sitting at the 
table and drawing horses, dogs, and making things for 
Halloween are some of my fondest memories.

I have posted a few things that I have made. I hope you
enjoy them as much as I do.

Thanks for dropping by for a look.
