Lollipop lollipop oh lolli lolli..

This is the last spread. Just the very last page left in the red journal. I will do a little video of the whole book soon. I think I will draw a face on the last page from my new class, All Norah's Art, and yes, I am still doing Misty's class too. By the time I finish these two classes I should have convinced myself that I can paint a face. I have had so much fun doing these classes but I need to stop now with the classes (yeah right) and just practice what I have learned from each teacher. Each one has a different way of painting. "Real artists" out there in the real world who have never visited or spent anytime in blogland don't know what they are missing--or that they might just learn something if they knew about some of these fabulous teachers. I am grateful for each one of them.

So beautiful Martha! Classes are so fun aren't they? I used to have to travel to learn from others or buy books and videos. THe Ning classes are such a nice way to bring the techniques to so many, world wide!!

Martha, I have to tell you that I love EVERY piece you do. The colors, text, drawings--all of it--are so very inspiring! I've never done a journal but I'm starting to think that one of these days I may give it a shot.

Every day you are a learner AND a teacher, Martha. (We all get the benefits of these classes you are taking!) You've inspired me to paint more. My art journaling right now is collage and lots of paper but this summer I want to paint more. When are ya comin' over?!! :D ~Kath

Could anyone not know about all the wonderful classes out on the web? They are like potato chips. I can't stop taking them! I used your calligrafun lettering to make ATC's for a trade on words for 2010. As soon as the trade is done I will post them on the class site. It was fun and the lettering was the perfect thing for them I thought. Have to go look at your other journal entries. I sure enjoy your art.
