I can't wait either!!

This is going to be a great class. Awhile ago I mentioned that I was wanting to try painting on a larger scale but I was feeling nervous about it. Right after that I came across Connie Hozvicka at Dirty Footprints Studio
After watching a video she had on her website about being a fearless painter I went for it and it was so much fun. Now there is an opportunity to take a class from her and 20 other fantastic artists! All for only $59.00 that is a bargain. Click on the button below to see all the juicy details. Here is a link

Some of the artists I am looking forward to learning from besides Connie are Sarah Whitmore (I did my first art journal page based on her Soul Journal prompts), Samantha Kira Harding (I have been learning a lot from here live video broadcasts) and Hanna Andersson (I'm very interested in the "layers of tissue" technique she will be teaching)

some journal pages




I first started my journaling in during the summer of 2008. The first pages I did were with the Soul Journal prompts. Quickly I learned that the journal I was using was way too big for me at that stage in my learning. I started using a 3 1/2" x 5 1/2" which was just right for me. I am still working in that same book. I am about half way through it. I love to look back at all the pages and see that I have made progress in my art. Here are a few of my favorite pages.
