Just a little mixed media photomontage I came up with this morning.

Quick Update
Today I got to talk to my mom on FaceTime, which was lovely. But my mood sank as soon as I got off the line. Today I didn't get much done. I worked on a soft pastel painting, but it was strange. My arms got so tired I had to lay down...from soft pastel painting. … Continue reading Quick Update
To Replace Instagram
I will be blogging a lot of my art at curvyrainbows.wordpress.com I still want a place to record my creative life. I just need to spend time away from Instagram. Meta is soul sucking. Today I have cleaning and laundry to do, and I need to figure out dinner. I'm thinking lemon chicken pesto pasta. … Continue reading To Replace Instagram
Okay, This Time It’s For Good
I deleted my writing/personal Instagram and my art Instagrams. I feel free! I am still on social media to network dogs in high kill shelters with fosters or adopters. But no more selfies (which always made me feel self absorbed). No more. No more getting dopamine hits from likes. I downloaded samples of 39 books … Continue reading Okay, This Time It’s For Good

So I gave one to my daughter, and the others I'm going to use to take notes in my personal curriculum. On top of … Continue reading New Notebooks for Learning
New Collages
I've been experimenting with surreal color effects in collage. Here are some early results. I do not know what anyone else will think of them, but I love creating these surreal images and I love looking at them. So I'm happy.
Studio Itch
I meant to spend all weekend with my family, but the studio itch got too strong. I had to do some painting.
Double Sleepover
Last night, Angelica was invited to a sleepover at her friend S's house. Tonight, she was invited to stay again, so we picked her up just long enough to take her to her appointment and then we brought her back. Hopefully she's having a lot of fun. C and I are. We went to the … Continue reading Double Sleepover
Life
After dropping A off at school and driving down the street, I got a phone call. I answered it and a cute little voice said, "Mom, I forgot my project at home in the living room. Can you bring it for me? I'm sorry." Since it is her first time forgetting anything this year, and … Continue reading Life
Instagram, Studio Life
I reinstated my writing Instagram, but not my trad account. I missed my small community on the writing account. And a record of the last decade of my life. I've been on it a lot less though. So the other night my husband took me by surprise. I can't remember exactly what we were talking … Continue reading Instagram, Studio Life
