Inspiration and horses



Well, I stumbled across the world of breyer horses on Youtube of all places. I used to play with model horses as a child and it seems that many young girls nowadays like them as well....only these kids have the notion to make little films of their storylines and such. Cute. Alas I don't have money to buy breyer horses, however that was not gonna stop me- I felt inspired- and I got out the scissors, prismacolors and cardstock and made roughly 20 horses. Here we see the mares and foals huddled together as the stallions fight.... needs a background I know but I only meant to show off my horse making skills :)

Gallery Updates


Well Climate gallery posted some photos of the exhibition "der Zeit of Drawing" and I finally found a photo with mine in it(top row on the right-hand wall), which makes me feel much better, here is the link to the picture
Also my family went with me to see the "9x12" show in Ft. Worth and photographed me next to 2 of my pieces, we couldn't get a picture with the 3rd one "Cowgirl and Kitten" because......It has been sold! How exciting for me, I hope it has a very happy home and that whoever bought it enjoys it a lot! :D

Christmas Time




Well Merry Christmas! I have some fun things planned for this week :) anyways. I got this movie "The Flight Before Christmas" and I love it, saw part of it on tv....interesting story and beautiful animation-made in Finland about a little reindeer fathered by one of santa's reindeer, who journeys to the north pole to meet his dad (suprise, you have a son!) along the way he comes to realize that real family are the ones who love you and have always been there for you, its quite a different style than the Disney/Pixar movies and I enjoyed it a lot! :)

Also I got me a party pack of lip smackers in the coca cola flavors..... I've always liked the soda pop flavors the best :)
Coca Cola always seems Christmas-y.

Yeah!
