Things to look for in 2012-

The Mystery Artist's League blog-

The Darkened Mind blog-

And when I get off my butt to paint- new stuff!

(If I'm writing this out, then I'm promising to do it!)

Happy New Year to everyone! I haven't written anything since the Steampunk Bizarre 2011
due to my mother passing away suddenly from a stroke in October. My mom was a great
lady and she is missed! So, to make her proud, I've been hacking away at the keyboard to
get a move on my first published book- The Darkened Mind Book 1:Resurrection.(There
will be a blog to visit coming soon. And now back to painting.....

Come see me at the Mark Twain house on Oct 1st

take a gander!

July we fly!

Hey out there! My stuff should be appearing in Conn. for the "Steampunk Bizarre"unless evil postal Zombies have their way with my packages. I'll be posting pictures shortly and I hope

everyone will like my journey into the Steampunk realm. There may be some "interesting"

uncovering of "artifacts" coming soon. I know, I know, it's always coming soon with me, but

the ideas are flying faster than a bat after a bug! Now it's off to bed before sunrise!

Tanks Easta Bunny!

Hey everybody! Ideas...Ideas...Ideas...and no time to execute them all!

Just a quick note to tell everybody out there to have a happy Easter.We'll be working away and watching our Easter favorites......Harvey, Willy Wonka, Wizard of Oz and of course..........Superman while eating Sin City Breakfast Tacos!

I've been taking time out to work on hand rearing a lost little kitten, so haven't had much time for artwork only a little polishing and editing of one of my novels, but new pieces will be coming soon.

I have also posted the poster(say that ten times fast) for the Steampunk Show that I and my husband, James, along with a wonderful group of artists will be participating in. I may produce another piece for a local show called "In Motion: The Human Body in Movement"hosted by Beach Cities Health District for those of you in the area.

Greetings everyone!

It's been a while since I've posted anything so I thought it's about time!

In my madness, I've been clickity clacking at my keys to edit my first novel

while designing some tie-"died" and printed t-shirts which you can find here:

I've also been enjoying my writer's group which had been great inspiration and I may

be exploring short story territory very soon.

My next adventure will be delving into the world of Steampunk for "Steampunk Bizarre 2- The Experiment"
