I'm a mother of two beautiful, talented girls and an artist of photography and mixed media. I change my visual collections as often as I change my hair color...and that's a lot! I fight daily to balance being a mother, a student and a successful artist and this is my journey...

Online Instructional Videos
I am considering filming some online instructional "How To" videos on things like collage and encaustic work. I see so many of them for sale and I would like to show other artists that encaustic work does NOT have to be complicated and intimidating. I thought that way at first and I finally broke down and tried it in its simplest form and, using normal everyday household items, I got into it and find it to be easy and really very soothing. Working with wax smells great and it is awesomely relaxing. You can enter almost a hypnotic state while you manipulate the wax and then burnish it to a glass-like shine. I am still working on the concept and should be able to get it together before the holiday season...
