When I saw Pam Carriker’s designs for Stencil Club I fell in love.  Not with Pam, I’m already in love with her work, with Frida!  I must confess I hadn’t really understood all the buzz about Frida until I had a chance to play with her. I do so love that every month a new [...]

I had, notice I said had, a whole drawer full of washi tapes that I hadn’t been using.  I loved them when I bought them but they just sat in the drawer.  Until I started transforming them with color and pattern.  Suddenly they started being used.  That is the seed that led to my latest [...]

I am always amazed by how art journaling connects me to my feelings.  Cleaning out part of my studio led me to finding the pink graffiti paper I made long ago.   All the bright colors and foam stamps and drips and splats felt right to me so I quit cleaning and made this…at least [...]
