Marching right past 200...

I am enjoying these girls - I did a group of nine with the same palette and there is a definite synergy between them.  But I've enjoyed this project so much.

I absolutely love this one...

I was kind of struggling with these two - but with a series of dabs and blending they appeared.

I really love the looseness and the emotion.

the tea parlor

Prepping boxes and boxes of teabags for my little class.

They are precious, delicate and soft.

And the best part is my studio smells like a tea parlor.

Class fun...

I am so excited to share this beautiful activity with you in class.

Making beauty this week has been so precious for me.

Other things too - so as much as there creative portraiture in the class...

There will also be beautiful things to make too.

I haven't forgotten...

I haven't forgotten about this special space...

I've just been deep in my TinyBagsofLove classroom and pulling all my materials, heart and soul together for class has been full on.  I haven't had too much time for blogging or posting.

But I am still showing up.  I will try and catch up during the next week or so.

Painting in this grouping has brought about some special outcomes.

Can't wait to share more about this in class.

June catchup...

I am finally out of bed and today was catchup day.

I got to hang out with my TeaBagGirls all day.

Just being up and about was stunning and I'm finally starting to feel more human.

Happy day!

Double vision

I'm seeing double for June.

It's harder than I was expecting.  I haven't felt like anything this month.

Being sick has pushed me off kilter and doing these gals when I'm so cold and under the weather...

has not been easy.    But pushing through.

My teabags were rough and a little hard to work on today.

Featured in the Rooibos Magazine...

Rooibos

My hubby was so proud of what I was doing on the TeaBags that he contact Rooibos Ltd about a year ago to tell them about my TeaBagGirls.  They wrote back to me and asked me and him to share a bit of the story.  So we did.

They shared my story in their Magazine.

I love that they call me the TeaBagGirl that paints on TeaBags.

It was a happy find.  I was searching the internet for a hashtag and accidentally came across it.

I can't figure out exactly when it was shared but I'm sure it was about a year ago when I was still doing 100Faces with Sharon Tomilson when I was still sending Rooibos TeaBags across the ocean.
