Well, after my loudly trumpeted start to the ‘Journaling for a Cause project, sadly, I am going to have to bow out. Three days in and I am struggling.

It’s not just trying to do the prompts, play with Orla, answer emails, work on new art, get to the post office etc.  I [...]

Journaling for a Cause - Prompt I

So, our project kicks off today, (see post) and here is our first prompt for the new ‘Journaling for a Cause’ class being run by the lovely Janel. The prompt was to commence with a “Welcome” page which was to include a little blurb with five adjectives explaining our lives  right now. Ergo: [...]

Illusio on Behance Network

I have found a new place, and I really like it. It’s not new or anything, in fact it’s been around for at least a couple of years. I have known about it and decided to finally open an account. And..I LOVE it! Though the work is juried, it has more of a community spirit [...]
