I was going to type this all out, but decided I wanted to say it all face-to-face (or face-to-screen). I mean every word. I dont know how this will work as a successful business model, but I KNOW thi...
Hi loves! Happy Memorial Day! Im spending my day relaxing, sketching, and diving into my journal. Its felt a little neglected as of late, so I decided Id take today off and play! We had our BBQ...
Last night, I sat down and wrote a blog post. It’s a monster of a post, at 1,535 words, and goes into detail about what I’ve been dealing with for at least six weeks. Or more. I don&rsquo...

Hello, loves! One thing Ive wanted to do more of, since my fantastic Christmas gift of a tablet and my partnership with Roben-Marie last year, is digital elements. Digital journaling is just so...
While I’ve been open about my living with FMS, and told a bit of my story, I thought I’d go more into what life — daily life — with FMS is all about. You can read on Wikipedia...

5 years ago, I started sharing my artwork via YouTube using the iSight in my MacBook and iMovie. I started with a supply list, then shared a journal page progress video. It hit the front page for How...
I have to admit, it took me a little while to get on the Smash book bandwagon. I couldn’t understand why I would go out and buy something I could probably make myself, with pages that al...
I’ve seen the posts for 29 Faces in May all over — Tam recently posted an in-progress video, Gulfsprite’s posting a photo of each day’s face, and others are showing them on In...
Congrats, Marylin! I decided to pick up a 5.5"x8.5" journal so you could have some more fun with the paper! I should have a new video up by Friday! My camera died while I w...
I love how possibilitys there for the taking if only you open yourself up to it. On Saturday, I suddenly wanted to go on an art picnic. Ive been having great fun setting up on the floor ...
I’ve become quite the Instagram addict, but not for the reasons you may think. There are so many talented artists sharing their works-in-progress and sketches and paintings, it’s a cornuc...
In this video, I tell you a little bit more about paper, and talk about the new mixed-media papers out there by Canson and Strathmore and gush about my new favorite. I also share some new journal pag...
I filmed a video today, but had such fun creating these pages last night, I just had to post. While I’ve sat down to create backgrounds and paintings, I’ve never simply sat d...
Yesterday, I thought it would be fun to snap pictures throughout the day as one of those cool "A Day in the Life..." things. I dont usually share this many pictures a day on Instagram, but it...
I meant to get this up yesterday and post an art & pictures post today, but the video didnt work when I went to edit, so BAM! Video today. The Whispers (or the Divine, or Flow, or Possibili...

Sometimes, you’ve just gotta go for it. Sometimes, you need to believe in yourself before anyone else does. Sometimes, in order to make it big, you have to believe it first, and go for it. ...
I have so much magic I want to write about, but it shall have to wait. As many of you know, I suffered a concussion early Friday morning when the light fixture in the ceiling of my Closet Studi...
I was recently asked, and not for the first time, if I add the date to my journal pages. I do, once and awhile, but that’s usually only to help me figure out what order the journal...
my works in the center. Today, we all pegged three of our drawings on the wall, sat back, and gave each other feedback. I’m no stranger to this process. I’ve been critiquing ...
Come say hi! Ill be here until 1pm PST doing some art journal pages and would love to see you!(Jerrys Artarama in Tempe, AZ)
I wanted to show you how the journal page from yesterday’s post (which, if you haven’t read it yet, go give it a gander!) came to be. My pages evolve organically, with layers added ...
I wrote this essay at 1am on Saturday, before I finished the novel. I can now say OMG you must read this novel because of its beauty, honesty, humor, and thought. I miss these characters, but am than...
I’ve sat down to write a blog post a few times this week. And haven’t posted any of them. Ever since my experiment in staying off the internet for a week, I’ve found mys...
Yesterday, Cassandra wrote: The last few days, Ive been hit with a serious wave of weakness and fatigue to the point where getting dressed is a major accomplishment-- but Im not sleepy. Getting chore...
I’ve been trying to write a blog post since Saturday. One is halfway finished, the other, nearly done. Both need a little more love & attention to become fully-formed posts, but life ...
I’ve had so much fun playing with photos on my cell phone, you knew it was only a matter of time before they fully worked their way into my journal. I have to admit — I was a...
When I clicked play on a video posted on Traci Bautista’s blog last week, I had no idea what I was in for. The video chronicled the combined efforts of Traci and an artist I’d never...
