Snow in our front yard

I love the snow. LOVE IT! I think the only thing I really love about living in Bisbee is that it snows here once or twice a year. Enough to make everything pretty for the afternoon and then melt. No shoveling!
The video is of the snow in our front yard. Its not a lot of snow, but it is enough to put a huge smile on my face!!
This video was taken about an hour ago, the snow is already beginning to melt. :(

SNOW

When the Snow Queen of Bisbee speaks, the Snow listens! It only took all winter to get some snow, but heck it snowed! YAY!
Here is Tootsie the Puglet experiencing snow for the first time!

And one more before bed time

I finished this piece today also.
I call it 'Don't Mess With Me Today'.
Sometimes you have to come out of the woods with an axe and a bloody dress in order for people to stop before pissing you off!!
Water color paper with watered down acrylics.
She will be mounted on wood and will get a beeswax finish...but that will wait until tomorrow.

October Friends

This is my latest painting for my Mixed Media with the Girls class taught by Wyanne.

Done on water color paper painting with mostly watered down acrylics.

Tomorrow I plan on buying some wood. I want to adhere the paper to the wood and then cover it with bees wax.

Please let me know what you think :)

Paintings!

I am taking these fab painting classes from Wyanne at www.wyanne.com.

I posted some of my paintings from our Paint Free class on my facebook page, so go there to see those. I just wanted to share a few that I just finished in the Mixed Media Girl's class.

I call it 'Bringing in the Friends Before the Rain'.



The second painting was really my final assignment for the Paint Free class Wyanne offers. But I wanted to use techniques from the MMGs class...so I did! :P
I call this one 'Walking Alone'.

You can't really see it from the photograph, but there is glitter in the background because I truly believe that everything in the world is better with glitter!!

Shall we discuss how much I love animals?!?

Oh yes I love animals. I think people should have fur babies over human babies.
But my obsession has reached an all time low!

A few months back we found a used 55 gallon aquarium at a really really really good price! So we bought it, set it up and put angel fish and mollie fish . I even planted real water plant bulbs in it and watched them grow and grow and grow.

Everyday I watch them swim around their tank.

One day I noticed that one of our mollie fish had a HUGE tummy! I showed it to my husband, he did some research and as it turns out she is pregnant.

We are expecting baby fish!

Except my husband warned me that if she had the babies in the tank with the angel fish then the babies would become food. YIKES! Ahhhhh! Nooooo! Not MY baby fishies!!!!

So on Tuesday my husband and I went out and spent over $100 on a new fish tank to put the pregnant fish in. HONESTLY! Mind you mollies cost $2.00. Though I couldn't stand the thought of her baby fishies being eaten! The horror!

Photos of the new fish tank (with erupting volcano...oh yes I went all out) will be posted as soon as the fish are put introduced to their new home.

What is Zentangle!!

Care from Autumn Leaves Jewelry asked me about my Zentangles. So here is a quick video of me (not having my coffee yet) showing off my Zentangles, my Zentangle Books, and my little box I carry them around in.

Enjoy!
