Packing and Moving

In case you're wondering where I've been... Artfest was great! I had awesome classes with Susan Kazmer, Catherine Witherell and Laurie Mika.

Now we're packing up our house and moving. I won't be posting again until my class on April 26th. See my last post for the details, or just head over to That Creative Place. If you have any questions email me or Lisa. Thanks!

Secrets of the Encased Heart Online Class April 26

If you missed my first online class "Secrets of the Encased heart class" $45, here's your chance again! Sign up today at That Creative Place to reserve your spot! You'll get instructions on how the online class works. In the meantime if you have any questions, feel free to ask me. NOTE: I will be offline (traveling) April 1-6th...so if you email me privately or leave a message here in the comments I won't be able to answer until I return. Lisa, at that creative place can also answer your questions.

As for the class, basic polymer clay experience is recommended. (ie: conditioning and baking polymer clay)

Heart Figurines

These cute little heart figurines are all one piece. They stand about 1 3/4" high. I made them as a surprise..shhhh. They're meant to bring a little artsy inspiration.

Happy Easter!

Something a little different. I sculpted this quick bunny and egg for the April Covered Egg challenge over at PCAGOE. Be sure to head over and vote for your favorite on April 1st - 3rd!

So, who else is getting ready for Artfest in Port Townsend? I haven't even gotten my supplies ready yet. I'll be scrambling this week for sure!! :)

Sweet HEARTS

The collection of hearts I've received in the last week from the sweet members of tejaesart group! Thank you ladies! From top left: Denise, Deena, Laurel, Paula, Sherry and Kim. The heart swap challenge was to create a heart that inspires the artist that receives it. I am truly inspired. :)

Deena Dykes Thank YOU!

Deena from my yahoo group (tejaesart) sent me a wonderful polymer clay heart that she designed. Isn't it great? Look at all the fibers and beads. I love that it matches the tissue paper too! How cool is that? Thank you Deena! It's wonderful.

So sweet

Yesterday was a great mail day. The best. I received my ATC Chunky Love Book back from the swap at AAO.

I also received a most heartfelt gift from Paula. Thank you Paula. Let me explain, I started a new yahoo group called tejaesart. Alot of the members are from my encased heart class and we're having our first "altered heart" swap. There was only one problem, there was 1 too many people to have an even swap so I graciously stepped aside. Well some of the members decided they still wanted to make a heart for me. Is that the sweetest or what??

Look what I got, Susan Kazmer's new book!

I picked up my signed copy at the Artists Nook (thank you Christine). I can't wait to get my hands dirty with this one. Susan Lenart Kazmer's new book called Connections. It's full of information. I'm taking Susan's class at Artfest this April but I couldn't wait til then to get the book. :)
