Day 11- Another picture of you and your friends





Me, Setefano and Paula Ann being silly. 
I'm going to miss Setefano. I dropped him off at the bus a week ago to start a new path of his life.

Maddy had her friend Ella come over yesterday

Just after she had got into the Sudo cream, what a mess!
Rat the cat was also a target for being creamed




Last night I was really happy to jump into bed and flick the TV onto TV1 and see Artsville a gallery without walls. I love sculpture and have been talking with Mum and Lynn about doing a piece this year. It was so inspiring for me. When I did the creative challenge at UCOL a few years back I did a sculpture class with Brit, it was the best. I loved it so much that I was going to go to art school just so I could do his class, but things didn't work out that way. Here is Brit's spot on the show: http://tvnz.co.nz/artsville/s2010-agallerywithoutwalls-extra-britbunkely-video-3988193

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.

Finally life is back to normal

Today is the first day in nearly 2 weeks that we have back our happy little singing girl. Nothing worse than a sick child! It makes you realise, on days like today, how lucky we have it.
I got a lot done today I started painting a series of affirmations paintings for our house. It will be nice to be surrounded in positive words when we need them. Called into the recycling centre and the supermarket. Gave shit to plummer Dan when he walked in on me cleaning the shower and chatted to the builder who is fixing our bathroom floor. Caught up with Chanz, Mum and Lyn. Got my 4 artist trading cards ready to send off 2mora for the next trade. Bought a Norfolk pine for our Christmas Tree, potted it in a lovely pot and decorated. I also split up one of my plants that I have wanted to do for sometime now but had ran out of potting mix. I got a shock when I drove into the Springvale Garden Centre it's FLASH! They have a kids play area, I have never been to a garden centre with a playground in …
