Carolyn and I had another fun weekend in Mangaweka.
This photo is of little George, he is so cute, he tells the funniest knock knock jokes.

Carolyn and I stayed the night after the glass casting workshop and gave them a hand to get ready for their big weekend next weekend. It will be a cracker and I wish them the best of luck for the closing of the festival. http://www.wekaart.co.nz/

I have made a slide show of the time we have had there click here to view.

Today has been bloody beautiful! The sun was shinning bright and the sky was a gorgeous colour. We headed out to the Mole, were the river meets the ocean, Shaughan threw his fishing line into the water but there was no fish caught. Ralphie had a wonder over the dunes and is now asleep at my feet. I nearly bought him home a girlfriend from the weekend but I think I will wait until we move into a house with a bit of land.

Mum just called in and we looked at the family tree that I have been building and she is going to get all the information to fill in the blanks. She had a fun night on Friday she called around to her friends and she tried Tequila for the first time and while she was doing the dishes around midnight noise control turned up, she laughed. It's great to hear that she is having fun, that is what life is all about!

Vanessa, Mum and I went to the art students exhibitions on Friday, I was very impressed. Wanganui is pumping out some great artists. I am so tempted to go to art school next year but I won't make any decisions until next year as you never know what is going to happen.

My message for the day was: Since joy is our primary emotion, you are sure to feel immense pleasure as you consciously connect with us.

I had 4 wonderful boys come and help move some more gear upstairs for me yesterday, Man it is such a help as I was getting really worn out from going up and down bringing stuff up. I still have lots down there to do but it's getting there! Thank you guys!

Oh Happy Days! x x x x x

Good-Bye Summer Family Ritual

For the past week I have been feeling the shift of seasons from summer into autumn. This has motivated me to c lean out closets, freshening up our home, make this summer photo collage, and created a family ritual. I find ritual really powerful it allows you the time to honour what has come before, say goodbye, and create intentions for what will come next. I've been poking around the internet and have found interesting articles on family summer rituals. Here are some of the suggestions I have read… Summertime is full of outdoor pursuits, so adding the outdoors into your ritual fits perfectly. Preserve summer fruits for the chilly months ahead. Engage in cooking or baking with summer ingredients. Shared a meal of seasonal food. Press summer flowers or herbs in books. Create a memory book of the past summer with photographs, ticket stubs, memorabilia, quotes, family jokes, poem, or anything else that reminds the family of fun times. Create a summer nature journal, detailing a

Art Every Day Month Day 7 - Encaustic Wax

I'm really enjoying blogging again, it's been years since I have written everyday. I used to do morning pages before I got pregnant, I have heaps of books full of my dribble. The Artist Way by Julia Cameron got me into the morning pages! Every artist should own a copy of that book! I was talking to a friend yesterday and she wanted me to order her a box of encaustic wax. I haven't done any encasutic for such a long time, so today was the day to dust off the cobwebs and get melting. Here are my 2 creations for the day... Releasing my MADNESS! Getting more into it without distractions Don't you love the texture wax makes! I have been looking for my cutter cause this card is too big and I just can't find it anywhere. Here are some other pieces I have done, in the past with encaustic wax. This one was done with the iron on card. This one was done with the iron on card. This one was done with the iron on card.
