Hi Everyone! I’m back from Montana. We had a good time visiting with my sister and her family. I also got to see Maureen White and we brainstormed about offering a workshop together.

We got to visit The Archie Bray Foundation and I saw art like never before. Here are some pictures I took:

I’m busy today trying to get moving in my studio again. It is hard to get in the groove after being out all those days.

Hope everyone had a good Thanksgiving and remembered to think about what they are grateful for.

If you have been wanting a print, today is the day to get one. When these are gone I will only choose a few to reproduce from the year 2008.

We also have a fresh batch of handmade lavender soap…

some mounted beeswax prints…

and a new variety pack of cards…

Come and CHECK IT OUT!

Big, big blessings to everyone this Thanksgiving Day!

(I’ll post some neat pictures of our trip here in Montana soon…)

My family and I are taking a trip to Montana. That means I will be out of my studio for a WEEK!! I never go that long…But, I am going to try to enjoy the traveling, visiting and family time. Of course, I will pack a few small chunks of wood and some paper to work on if time permits…maybe in the evenings? All that to say, this is the last angel I will be offering for a little while.

She can be found on EBAY.

I’ll try to get some good video footage and pictures to share while we’re out and about.

The ebay doll makers group I am in called, Rags To Riches Dolls (R2RD), is having a Group Challenge! The theme is ”Twas The Night Before Christmas”. I am not so sure my doll fits the theme well…but it IS a Wintery dolly.

One of my sisters is a midwife and she was saying how I should start painting for birthing centers and midwifery schools. I liked the idea so I let it sit in my mind for awhile. Then, when I was just sitting in my car waiting for my children to get out of school, I closed my eyes and had this vision of a very fertile pregnant woman with babies all around her. I scribbled it down on the nearest paper and knew that the first chance I had to paint, I would give it a try.

This painting can be found at grittyjane.com.
