Hey everyone! I hope you’re having a great week so far! Just wa...
Burnishing... "polish by rubbing."Â Well it kinda is like that, but we are using pencil crayons, instead of the traditional metal burnishings. What we do is place a lighter colour on top of the base colour, and the act has pressure to it because we are rubbing it into the base colour. So it is the a...
Today's #FridayFinds is the top selling book by Prince Harry, called Spare. Here we get a glimpse inside the dysfunctional royal family. What separates his family from ours is the desire to look good in the daily British newspapers. It seems there have been times where a person's misdoings would be...

In the summer, this cat was coming around the house. I began feeding him as he looked scruffy. I was right in my assumption as he would gobble the food down. I tried to figure out where he lived, but I never figured that out.
He would come 2-3 times a day;Â he would eat and then move to the corner o...

Today's #WednesdayWins is my LIVE: Art & Soul Creation. This is a time where I lead a creation time and some 'me time.' At first I welcome everybody and introduce some new art material to them. After that, we either do a guided meditation or a reading from a book; I find this is a lovely way to ease...

There is the craft hobbyist acrylic paint that is thinner, while the artist tubed acrylic paint is thicker. There is also a type called Fluid A...
Many years ago, we had a cleaning lady. There was always a trouble with glass cleaner; as it left streaks on the glass...and you'd have to do it again. Well, Roxanne (cleaning lady) kindly introduced to us an amazing cleaning aid called Invisible Glass. It was/is amazing for streak free magic!! We ...

He was coming around out house since summer time, and as the weather got cooler, we got hime a cat house with a heated floor. Then one snowy day he came to our b...
I like it when I'm organized...it seems the world flows better (at least I think it does!). It really helps to organize my art supplies, in particular. Then I know the material that I want is right 'there!' I did this with my acrylic paints (which included full bodied acrylics and fluid acrylics). B...
