This 9×12 original is available HERE

I layered it on thick in this piece, lots of texture with modeling paste, gesso and crackle paint and then I added some of my favorite papers and stencil work to make this just so yummy!

I want to thank you guys for so many wonderful messages and emails with love after sharing last week about my struggle with an email. As I read and re-read all the notes I got to thinking about my journey and how I haven’t always chosen the right response and remembered the knowledge and wisdom I received from some of my blunders and not so finer moments.  I also remembered how I decided to make changes in my life and live a more gracious life. I share more about this in the video, but the bottom line is that we choose who we are and how we show up in the world.

Enjoy the video
