| This is a picture of my husband Coz and myself happily showing off our sunburned faces from our Cancun Paint to you Faint Seminar in January 2009. |
| This year looks to be another busy year for me. I am thrilled to be teaching and especially travel teaching as much as I am. I would love to come to your chapter to teach. Just email me on my availability. Please check out my schedule on my "Schedule and Workshop" web page. I will be scheduling some Saturday painting classes in my home in the near future. Keep checking my schedule, I would love to paint with you! |

| LANA GROW WORKSHOP I was fortunate to take a seminar with Lana Grow. Wow! What a week of discovery and fun. We used Golden liquid acrylics and many other products and techniques to create abstract paintings. |
Like most of us, I have a lot of great ideas
and partially finished pieces. These are a
few of the finished paitings.

| CARDS I made cards out of my used pallet paper. I wouldn't want to waste anything, and as I always say, "It will make a beautiful card." |
| IN PROGRESS... Ok, it is a process and a very unfished painting, but it as possibilities and about 10 more hours of work |
| WHAT I PAINTED THIS YEAR This year I was into painting floral collages and cats. What a lot of fun. Lots of color, lots of texture. Some paintings are already made into painting packets, other packets are on the way. My newer pattern packets will contain more photos, showing detailed step by step photos. The price for these new improved packets will be $10. |
| Harriet Spohn My Mom was sick this year and I had to juggle my time between helping to care for her, working full time and painting. Sadly, my Mom passes away on November 1, 2010. She was 79 years old. We miss her greatly. |
| My mom was very creative and a talented seamstress. She designed and sewed all of the wedding dresses and bridesmaids dresses for my sisters' and my wedding. |

| ART ON A LINE I was thrilled to be number one in sales at the 2011 Art on a Line show of the Northstar Watercolor Society. Good news, I still have lots of paintings left to sell. When I have the time, I am trying to get my paintings imaged and placed on my website. Until then, if you are interested in any of my pieces, please feel free to conact me, I probably have that painting in invettory! I would love to sell it to you. |
