So after I fixed my day a couple of days ago I made a couple more journal pages. I have been SO busy with life! I have spent a good amount of time at the gym training. I feel good, and making great progress, but I am also very tired! As it turns out my friend Corrie, who I made The Crazy Day journal page for, did like the Caged Bird page. After I explained, my day really was crazy, so crazy I made the wrong journal page, while I still had a ton of other stuff to do, she said she would like to have that page! I feel totally happy about that. Today I finished the other side for her page, which turned out to be a very personal page:

It actually went really well with the flipside, my caged bird page. So I am happy with that result. A couple of days ago I finished the other side to the Royal Women Journal page, it turned out good:      

Go to my 'Journal page' on this website, to view the pages next to eachother. My son Skyler, he is 7 years old, really enjoys art as much as I do. I have to say he is quit good. The other day I had made that grasshopper page remember. Well he saw me working on it in my wokspace, went upstairs and started working on his own page. I want to show you a side by side view of our pages!

Now isn't that AWESOME? He made that page totally from only looking at my page! I was really impressed. He told me: "Here you go mom, maybe the friends in your art club would like to have this page!" That was so great! His page says: "Were are woor bogs?" (translation "where are your bugs?")

Well I think that is it for my art time today. I have a laundry machine to unload, a dishwasher to unload, a laundry machine to re-load and a dryer to load. Then there is all the clothes that need to be folded and put away. A trip to school to pick up Skyler. A trip to blockbuster to have the kids pick their 'weekend' movies.....and what else? Oh I am sure I can think of plenty of more things I want to get accomplished today! Oh did I forget dinner? Yes we have to eat right?

I was going to say something else and now you made me forget... Oh yes yes, I was at my bookclub meeting the other day. And I was talking to Tracey -the host "Hi Tracey!"- about her books, and asked: "Are these all your books here?" And she said: "No, most of my books are in my study." And I thought that sounded so awesome, a study! I wish I had a study! Well I guess I kind of have study, but it is also my workroom for art as well, I should start calling it my 'Studio'. Which is what I shall do! So: from My Artist Studio, I wish you guys a great Friday! Talk to you again later on this weekend!
