PAINTER'S BLOCK

    Having a bit of I-am-just-not-in-the-right-creative-head-space to work on the Wine and Cheese and Landscape painting these past few weeks.  I have been staring at it.  It has been staring right back at me.  No one has blinked yet.

    I work weekends as a part-time "Activities Specialist/Classroom Coordinator" at a craft store.   I'm paid to "inspire" customers to craft.  I made this for the store about this time maybe last year and no one has the heart to take down or "refresh" the KONG!  It's completely not in an area that we sell these products anymore, but it's just so awesome and a huge hit with the kids that KONG LIVES!

This is some inspiration for the canvas bag display.

"S" for Superman.

What else to do with a $1 placemat? Make it into a quick bag.

Chevrons are taking over the world

Glass Block lights and fun to put in your window

    Inspiration for the Open Stock Scrapbook papers Aisle.  This I thought about my Mom the whole time and how this little girl looks like her, and well everything just seemed like my Mom so I had a great time making this one, and it has become one of my "Bells of Mindfulness" at work, if you know what that means.  If not look up http://www.goodreads.com/author/show/9074.Thich_Nhat_Hanh and you will feel peaceful.

    That's it for this week.  I'm going to blink now. Let the painting win for this round. I need a coffee.
