Thanks Carolyn for inviting me to share my art and techniques with your readers!
Today, I am going to share with you all the secrets on how I painted this mixed media duck. The video is super short yet action packed so whether you are sipping your morning coffee or sneaking this in later in your busy day you do have time to watch it all.
The Supply List
Now, since I know you have an action packed life, I figured life is too short to take notes. So what I did was put together a supply list for you of everything I used in this video. All you have to do in enter your name and email and I will send the supply list your way.

In Case We Haven’t Met Yet...

The hardware store is full of potential art supplies that can encourage play. In this week’s 
That sandpaper got me thinking about chalkboard art…I love the look of chalk but hate dealing with the smearing. So I wondered if I could use sandpaper to create non smearing faux chalk art? The answer is yes!
How does the hardware store help me play? There is no wrong way to use it because I am already using it in a way that wasn’t intended by the manufacturer. As I played, my inner my inner kindergartner took over and just wouldn’t let me stop using crayons!
