The forecast has called for snow for what seems like weeks now.  If you’re a fellow Seattleite, you know that it can be exciting, not cumbersome, to have some snowfall.  I know it won’t be anything like last year, but it would be magical to have a just a bit fall down before we head out for a trip.  Here’s hoping!

And the registration page for future workshops is up, look for more specific dates after the holidays.  Speaking of holidays, I hope you enjoy yours!  I’ll be celebrating Christmas with loved ones, I’m so excited to be with everyone this special time of the year.  You can follow my thoughts along the way here.

P.S. I’ve been decorating all our presents with these fabulous complimentary tags illustrated by Roxy!

Over the weekend, I held a workshop teaching one of my favorite techniques of handpainting photographs. Everyone came away with gorgeous prints and it was so exciting to see what everyone did with their piece. It was especially wonderful for me to see the students who mentioned that they had no background in drawing or painting produce really professional looking photographs that were so gorgeous they could have been hanging in a gallery and no one would be the wiser that it was their first go at it! (Just as I always suspected, everyone is an artist in their own right.) ♥

If you are interested in coming to my workshops, this was the first of many to come. The next one will be in the beginning of the new year, look for the sign-up spots to be posted later today.
