Painting

This has been a lonely weekend for me since Tony has been gone. I know you'd think i would enjoy the time apart since we are always together. But not so......Ya maybe the first day with all my junk food that as soon as he was gone i went out and got. Its weird when he's not here and i cant imagine ever being without him.........He's my best friend and my forever love.......

So this morning i decided to paint and this is for Tony.

I always love spending my mornings drinking coffee and painting/journaling and its been awhile since i've done it.

Self portrait? Maybe.......

Making collage paper

Something Ashleigh and I are working on........

Heres to Friends

Remember these tattoos? Lynne and Andrea......

Its a friend thing.....Two of my friends have this same tattoo, girls are so funny.

Whats some of the fun and wierd things you've done with your peeps? Nothing to weird and lets keep it clean.......

Millie

How sweet is this girl? We have been baby sitting Millie for the past week and she goes home in the morning.I love having a dog in the house .......It makes me miss our boy Marcel whom we lost this past January.lol.........and tears.......

Carmela,Me and Marcel.......We miss you both.....

First off a thanks to everyone who left a message and a pic of there studio.

The lucky winner is......

Thanks Lorelei, send me am email with your mailing address and i'll send your prize. zoaart@yahoo.com.

Are you wandering what Lorelei won? Well i made a pair of earings with the new bronze clay and added PMC with it. I've hammerd the texture in both pieces.

So I really love the bronze clay and i'm working on several more pieces, most of which will be with Tony this weekend in Philadelphia at the Bead Fest show. Make sure you stop by and say hello to Tony if your going to the show.

I will be teaching a PMC ring class this weekend in Asheville,NC at Cheveron Bead store.If your in the area and would like to join us you can call Cheveron to register 828-236-2323.

I made a mistake on our schedule and over booked us for the up comming weekend sooooo we will not be in Atlanta. Sorry........

I have a new plan for blogging and that is to post something every day(except for when we are both traveling out of town) a picture ,a word, whatever.Lets just put me to the challenge and see what happens.

I was visiting Lorelei's blog and she was talking about the challenges of blogging.There are so many but i think one of the biggest is we like to see that people are responding to the blogs and if your not we and i mean I am not motivated to keep blogging or post more often.So if your reading the blogs please leave a reply so we/i know your out there and your intrested.

We love to hear from you! You are our inspiration........untill tomorrow.........

Lisa's Studio

Well i finally got around to painting and organizing my studio. I love this space and really never want to leave it........

In the begining there was cream walls and grey floors..........I could not do that and be happy working so i changed it up a bit.

My new floor color is Quite Red.The walls are Turquoise Tint and Crushed Cumin.

I like to have my morning java here and plan my day......Or read magazines.

Love,Love, Love this space.

So any hoo, Ive been working with the new Bronze clay and love it!

I really like the way it feels.Its so pliable and you have a longer working time before it starts to dry.

I'll get it fired this week and put more pics up of the finished pieces.

Have I told you how much i love my new studio?

I would really enjoy seeing some of your studios. If you respond to this blog with a link to your blog and photos of your studio, i'll have a drawing at the end of the week and the winner will get one of my new Bronze clay finished pieces.
