I have created a new video on YouTube for Valentine's Day here:

It is entitled "My Funny Valentine's Day Card". For anyone in need of a Valentine wish, please check it out! And Free Hugs to all! 🤗💖😍

I added new music for a more dramatic flair which I think enhances the artwork.

I have written a review of Shan Peck's book on Amazon.com where it can be purchased. I am one of the 8 artists featured in this collection of portraits of movie stars. My portrait drawings of Anna Paquin and Veronica Lake are included in this beautiful book.

Yesterday ....after deliberating for several days whether to write this or not....I wrote my 10th post on Niume, a blogging platform and writing community originating in the UK. It is entitled "The Evolution Of Two Paintings, One Poem, And The Artist". The link to the page is here:

It has taken 4 decades, 3 years, and 10 months for me to write this information down. And then to share this with the world....well, that was a challenge for me just to get out the gate. So far it has been the most popular post I have written on Niume. I just started there on Sept. 12, 2016. I am amazed at the reception of it. It presents some controversial topics to consider....like women's lib, violating women's rights, sexual orientation, personal exploration through art, acceptance of women's rights in a male dominated field, freedom of speech, etc. I had never expected to have the courage to speak out about these topics before. I guess the time has come.

This is a compilation of drawings, paintings, photographs, and digital art that promises to make you smile! :-)

Yesterday I started hosting my first contest on FAA. It has to do with childhood dreams we had while growing up. You know...I want to be a dancer, a cartoonist, a book illustrator, a figure painter, a fine artist.....well, you get the drift. As I wrote in the contest description:

Any media
Any style
Let your imagination
Run wild

I hope that expresses the freedom one had to create with abandon...without concern for imposing rules or society's judgments. The image I used as an example is an ink wash drawing of a dancer in expressionistic style. My first ambition as a little girl was to be a ballet dancer. :-) I already see many entries in this contest that had the same idea!

What was fun for me is that I have created certificates for the top 3 prizes awarded. They show the appropriate ribbon, placement, name of contest, name of administrator (me), and the date. So if the winners will send me their email addresses, I will email them their certificates. I used the DrawPlusx8 program by Serif to create these prizes. So I hope you like!
