Day 29- In this past month, what have you learned

How to make flea powder out of essence oils using peppermint, eculypus and rosemary. I put 3 drops of each in a cup of cornflour and then sprinkled over the cat, you have to do this every 3 days until they are gone! There is some cool software for artists to aid in getting organised. I'm not so good at handling sicknesses. Tobacco is easy to grow, I finally planted my seedlings yesterday and they have already taken off. My child is Wiggle crazy she could watch and listen to The Wiggles 24/7. Skype now offers video conferencing, a very cool feature just in time for my online art marketing group that starts in 10 days. How to use Wordpress. That the Tourist is a cool movie that I would be happy to watch again. Not to leave the zinc cream in reach of wee Maddy cause she will be covered in it and then start on the cat. And lastly that you can never be sure when Mother Nature is going to strike.

I'm really trying to finish my painting so much that I was painting next to Maddy having a bath last night. She wanted to paint too!


I have just been checking out Len Lye's work this morning on Youtube so I thought I would share, he was so ahead of his time!

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.
