So, we know I both fear and loathe Las Vegas going to the dentist, right? And that I semi-accidentally didn’t go for several years? And that, ironically, I broke a tooth (more accurately: an old filling fell out) while flossing, prompting an emergency visit to that place of fear and loathing? (If you didn’t know those things, consider yourself fully caught up.) Materials used: Pentel brush pen (pink)… and, um……

Today: What I made | 003
What I made this week: A crappy video. Olé! (I’ll embed it below for your viewing pleasure so you can mock me.) I also made some other stuff. Mostly all on the same night. Nick and I caught up on Homeland (by watching 900 episodes),…

Today: Get Messy Thursdays | Magic, Week 3
[So… most of this post was thrown together well before yesterday’s tragic events in San Bernardino. This is not a post about grief or guns. But those things, rather than paint and sketchbooks, are what I’m actually thinking about today.] This week was sort of…

Today: Get Messy Art Journal | Magic, Week 2
With Thanksgiving this week, I didn’t get much done in the way of creating (except for a plate of super easy, semi-lazy, delicious onion tartlets) until last night. For the second week of Get Messy Art Journal‘s magic theme, I went semi-dark. Once I broke…

Today: Get Messy Thursdays | Words, Week 5
I don’t have much in the way of actual words to share this week (which… let’s be honest… you’re likely 900% okay with this). I stuck to basic materials (scissors, paper, magazines, glue and a few pens) and made some equally basic pages. Sometimes basic…

Today: Get Messy Thursdays | Words, Week 3
This post is a day late. I mention that simply so you don’t fear that I’ve entirely lost track of days (though… some days…). If you’d like to learn more about the Get Messy Art Journal program, click on over. Get Messy Thursdays | Words,…

Today: Get Messy Thursdays | Words, Week 2
September was one of those months where I wrote 45 posts in my head… but apparently that’s where 41 of them stayed. In my head. Here’s to a fresh month, a fresh start, and a fresh opportunity to have the best of intentions, only to get…
