A New Book

I don't know where I got this image. If you know, please tell me and I will give credit.

January is like a new book, isn't it!?

I've just disappeared and I think it's because (okay, I KNOW) I'm trying to

figure out what I'm doing art wise these days and if I really want to keep blogging.

I'm not blogging enough really to even consider it as something I do!

I always read in January. 

I started How to Breathe Underwater by Julie Orringer

(I look at college freshmen reading lists)

 A Tree Grows in Brooklyn by Betty Smith 

(I try to read the classics occasionally)

 and

 A Tide Too High by my QB5 friend Carole Brungar.

Those are JUST the fiction books I'm reading.

I'm also trying to decide what I want to do this year "art-wise".

I did an incredible class by Misty Mawn last year (Full Circle) that was my most favorite ever!

And I did some Mary Ann Moss classes and some Christy Tomlinson/Junelle Jacobson.

I've been obsessed with Mindy Lacefield's art for months now!!!

And I think I'm going to sign up for her new class...

it's a year long....

  Permission to Play.

It starts the first of February and it will be up online forever....
so you can take the rest of your life to do it! (me)

Are you taking any classes or reading any books?
