I had so much fun creating this particular entry. Almost as much fun as I had attending the concert this is in tribute to. Colin Hay is a wonderful singer and song writer. If you have been following my blog for a while you will know that my husband and I love to attend concerts…

art is the foundation of everything I do. ideas are formed first through my art and is then carried throughout my other works. without art I would not create.
Forgotten Flashback: Goodby Little Sweetie Bird #art #mixedmedia #losingapet
What a sad day this was indeed. I can never fully express that sadness one feels when losing a pet. For some reason, losing our little canary was one of the hardest losses to bare. Last winter was already bleak when we discovered that morning our little bird had passed away. For only a short day our…
Forgotten Flashback: Jan 18th 2015 #art #ink #summer #dnartcorner
In the bleakness of a January winter all you want is to feel a summer breeze and the warmth of the sun on your face. This is how I felt last January in the midst of all that snow and cold winds that whipped around me. Its those long winter days that make me dream…
Forgotten Flashback: Jan 9th 2015 #art #dnartcorner
This is not a post I take lightly. Some days just plain suck. Unfortunately this was one of them. For a while now, I have had on and off health issues with my heart. In January of last year I woke up with pains in my chest. Rather than take a risk and stay home…
Flashback Friday Comeback: Feb 18th #art #mixedmedia #dnartcorner
Long time no see… It’s been awhile since my last post. Alas, I have been plagued with cold-then-flu which had me out of the loop for a long while. I am been slowly starting to feel human again. While I have been away the weeks have been zipping on by. Many Fridays have come and gone without…
Flashback Friday: Escape from the cold #art #ink #mixedmedia
This little entry depicts a nice little time my husband I shared while escaping from the cold and falling snow last year. Winter can seem very bleak come mid-January and it is a welcome sight to see a smiling face hand you a hot beverage to chase those chilly days away. While we certainly could…
Flashback Tribute: David Bowie #davidbowie #blackstar #art #mixedmedia #dnartcorner
In the world of music, yesterday we lost one of the most iconic musicians that ever lived. For most of my life I was aware of David Bowie. Like many of my generation, my parents would listen to his albums for hours which slowly worked its way into my mind. However, it was more than…
Random Flashback: Goodbye 2015 #art #ink #mixedmedia #dnartcorner
I decided to post this one a day early since we are all embarking on a new year together. It felt kinda of funny if I posted this tomorrow. No worries though, I actually have two flashbacks to share this week, so I will post the second one around my usual time tomorrow. So for…
Flashback Friday: Dec 25th 2014 #art #mixedmedia #dnartcorner
“It came without ribbons! It came without tags! It came without packages, boxes or bags!… Then the Grinch thought of something he hadn’t before! “Maybe Christmas,” he thought, “doesn’t come from a store. Maybe Christmas… perhaps… means a little bit more!” ~Dr. Seuss, How the Grinch Stole Christmas! Merry Christmas to everyone who has every…
Flashback Friday: Dec 14th 2014 #art #ink #mixedmedia #dnartcorner
Here we are with only 7 days until Christmas and not a snowflake in sight – at least here in the Midwest. While I do not treasure shoveling snow like most folks, I do enjoy the beauty and wonder those crystalline flakes add to the season. They especially look most wondrous against the ‘twinkling of…
Flashback Friday: Dec 7th 2014 #art #ink #mixed media #dnartcorner
That first brisk chill in the air, to the first puff of frosty breath, to the first flake that hits the ground are all signs that winter is just around the corner. Depending on who you ask, winter has already begun. Meteorological winter starts on December 1st while our traditional almanac states that winter begins during…
Flashback Friday: Dec. 2, 2014 #art # ink #mixed media #dnartcorner
Hello readers, I can’t believe it is already December! My how time flies! Amongst the Christmas craziness and commercialism that surrounds the holidays, I take great solace in drawing in my journal. There is something special about putting pen to paper creating lines, words and adding a splash of color. It’s very meditative and calming….
