Day 16 of Creative Everyday Month

I lost the piece of paper I had on my desk to remind me of what drawing challenge I had for the day, so I'm going to chuck that idea out the window and just create stuff that I want to. I haven't painted for ages cause I had packed my studio up, as we where expecting a visitor to come and stay for 6 weeks. But last night I found out that it wasn't happening, so I can set my studio back up which I'm looking forward to doing! It was a good break and I got super organised, I'm not going to have any clutter in there. 
Cause the past 24 hours have been pretty crazy I'm going to relax and read my new book Native Wit by Hamish Keith about his life, he is  very funny! Today I updated my website page on recommended New Zealand Art Books CLICK HERE to check it out. You can purchase the books by clicking the link to go to fishpond website.

My card for the day is...
Funny this card comes up cause my friend came around today and we talked about lots of different business opportunities. 

My clip of the day was sent to me by a friend today. It reminded me of the time I had in my big messy studio ...


Looking forward to painting tomorrow!

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.
