Choosing Platforms

Show week is here again as we get ready for our market weekend at the Stillwater Minnesota Flea Market this weekend and I’m trying to prepare myself for the hot temperatures. As a creator, sweating for my art is just another part of the job. Come join us this Saturday and Sunday if you wantContinue reading “Choosing Platforms”

Prompts Into Action

The north this weekend was filled with mild weather and sunshine to the delight of many who anticipate a storm right before they hit the roads for holiday travels. There’s numerous stories up here of families driving through ice and snow storms on the way to Grandma’s. Our white knuckle adventures on the way toContinue reading “Prompts Into Action”

Social Media Star

Just a few more days to the weekend and excitement is the air for fellow authors. The two soon to be new authors I’m helping just informed me that they’re getting their website ready for launch day! After I finish a few more rounds of proofs, it’s time to help new authors with the hardestContinue reading “Social Media Star”

Friday is Day #8 – Watch

Last night meant late hours because my art muse decided to stay awake and create a miniature cauldron of green, glittery goo. I was supposed to be working on my next day of InkTober but my hands itched to make something in 3D. No matter the medium, at least these chilly months inspire creation. SubtitlesContinue reading “Friday is Day #8 – Watch”

My Miniature World

All the creating for this past weekend’s outdoor event has increased my appetite for all things Halloween.  My miniature world turned to holiday set building.  Thank you to all those who stopped by my table.  What they didn’t see was a very late night packing up pieces, and a pile of those I couldn’t bringContinue reading “My Miniature World”

Outdoor Event – September 18th

Friday is here and I’m running around getting everything ready for tomorrow’s show. Last coats of glaze will go on and packing and repacking will happen because my brain wants to add more to the already packed boxes for tomorrow. My Thanksgiving dinner will be on display along with some fantastical creatures. I might evenContinue reading “Outdoor Event – September 18th”

Grade School Ideas for Adults

Midnight passed last night and my mind decided to wake up again.  I wandered down the hallway in the dark thinking about my next show.  An image of my books sitting on the corner, waiting to be signed passed through my mind and then new ideas started to form.  The next thing I knew, YouTubeContinue reading “Grade School Ideas for Adults”

I’ve impatiently waited for an event where readersContinue reading “Words and Art”

Night Owls!

The sun is going down behind the clouds this evening and much needed drizzle for our brown grass.  Our grass looks like it moved out West this year.  I can hear the stories churning, and I wonder how many will have droughts or weather related content inside. My post today is in the evening becauseContinue reading “Night Owls!”

Celebration Time!

A celebration is in order!  My art pieces were dropped off and put out on display to get ready for Meet and Greet Day on July 10th!  A big part of the running around and getting ready for show day is over.  I will be ready with pen in hand for book signing at 12:30Continue reading “Celebration Time!”

Event July 10th at 12:30 pm

The middle of the night passed and decisions needed to be made for tomorrow’s due date.  You understand if you participate in events.  I can’t haul everything with me, and some things decided not to work at the last minute.  I have one additional piece that won’t be finished until after the 4th of July,Continue reading “Event July 10th at 12:30 pm”

The Circus Is In Town

Okay, the weekend was a little chaotic trying to get everything ready for show day but it paled in comparison to last night.  I think a full blown circus decided to move into town for a few days because I feel like every performer in the show.  Not only am I the plate spinning, acrobat,Continue reading “The Circus Is In Town”
