My finger is doing better, but I have a feeling it will never fully recover. I have limited strength and an ever-present “pop” every time I bend it. So, I guess I just need to put on my big girl panties and move on!
My jewelry wardrobe continues to grow, as I “experiment” with the whole jewelry-making process. My sister gave me a jewelry making book for Christmas and a charm bracelet book for my Birthday. All my husband has to say about it is, “Oh No!”
Last month I had the pleasure of organizing a bridal shower with a friend, for a friend. It was a small, intimate affair, and so instead of a cake we had cupcakes. I made them, and wouldn’t you know, it led me in another direction. Cake Decorating Classes! In my attempt to make something “pretty” for the shower, I realized I hadn’t the skill to create what I wanted, so I did my best
and signed up for the Wilton Cake Decorating class at my local Michael’s store. You can be sure I will now include cake decorating as a topic for future posts.
Work on the book continues.
Zoe's PawPrintArt will be expanded to include paintings painted with a paw print paintbrush the I made in Corel Painter. The paintbrush was created using an image of Zoe's paw and will be used to paint entire paintings. It's kind of a strange concept, I know, but here is a very fast, very rough painting that I painted so you could see what I'm talking about. It is a Celtic Knot, done in celebration of St. Patrick's Day.
If you look closely, you will see that every bit of this painting was painted using Zoe's PawPrintArt paintbrush that I created in Painter!
Well, I guess that's the past couple of months in a nut shell. I'll be back with regular postings about art, jewelery making, cake decorating, the book, and whatever else I can share with you.
