Studio 5



Oh my.... I have so much to say to catch up on this blog.  I would love to journal all about this crazy last month that I have had.  This month has been a doosey.  It all started on February 1st when Design Mom posted my article about 3 abstract paintings for kids.  Since then it has been crazy.  I have had thousands of hits on my little art blog from all over the country and even Switzerland, New Zealand, Dubai, Canada, France.....  If you don't know what my little art blog is about, I am teaching a little 4 year old art class for Lance starting on March 14th and I am documenting all the how- to's and step-by-steps online.  It is about 4 of the 7 elements of art: shape, color, line and texture.  You can link to it by clicking on the picture at the top of my blog.  I had no idea so many people would want to follow along.  I am excited and overwhelmed at the same time.  I am wondering what happened to my quiet and sane life?  I go back and forth between being excited and being overwhelmed and confused.  However, I have decided to just roll with the craziness and before I know it the class will be over and I will hopefully have a normal life again.  I do hope to inspire other parents out there to sit down with their kids and have fun with art, so that makes the class worth the craziness I guess.  Well to get even more crazy... KSL's Studio 5 asked me to come on their show tomorrow and show how to do the 3 abstract paintings I did for Design Mom.  So if you live in Utah check it out at 11:00 am tomorrow - Thursday.  I am so nervous!  They said they might want me to come back as a regular - wow.  Well I just thought I would quickly write this post because I feel so bad that I have kept some of my best friends out of the loop in the midst of all this craziness.  I hope to post soon about a few other adventures we have had this month including a trip to Miami, Florida and Ann Arbor Michigan.  Crazy but fun times.

Tell Brooke you are related to me and Emily. She will love that. Brooke was a roommate of Emily's in college and has been a close friend since. That is wonderful for you! Congratulations!
