Swirl Magnets - Set of 6


I found an old art case that used to hold my paints and put it to use!
These are cropped images from my "Flow" Series paintings and a "Sunny" Nursery Mural that I made into marble magnets. They're great gift ideas, and are super strong magnets that can hold lots of papers on your fridge.

Habitat for Humanity New Orleans Work Week

I just got back from a very productive and eye opening work week trip to New Orleans with the Lancaster Area Habitat for Humanity. It's hard to grasp or understand the devastation that occurred down there unless you see it first hand. Everywhere we drove and walked was at one time under water. Many homes have not been touched since being gutted and marked. It was amazing to see how long it is taking to get that city back together. If you're interested in taking a group down to New Orleans, or going by yourself, check out Habitat for Humanity's website.

Be the change
that you want to see in the world.

Creative House of Lancaster

What a cool, unique and alive group of creative individuals the CHL has brought together. There was such a need for this kind of group in Lancaster, it's truly evident in the rapid growth of members it's finding, without even promoting it yet. If you live in Lancaster and want to meet other creative people to be inspired, network, be encouraged, or just socialize with, then check out this group and you'll see what I mean. They're already working on their second ezine after a hugely successful first issue, so get on their email list to get your copy.


Our first group membership show is
ART IN THE BAR
October 2nd @ 7pm
Alley Kat 30 W. Lemon St in downtown Lancaster

If You Can't Stand Dora

The only reason I buy anything Dora or stand to watch it sometimes is because my adorable niece's LOVE her. So, when I saw this on Saturday Night Live this weekend, I almost peed my pants. You have to watch it if you're a parent of a Dora fan or not. And most of all, if you're a pastor, the ending is really the best part.

Diary 2008 Project

Lucy B from fantazya fantazies came up with a cool idea of making a journal full of different artists' artwork for every date in the calendar year. I jumped at the chance to grab my birthday date and designed this page for it. I think this is a great idea and another creative marketing tool. You can use them as Christmas or Birthday presents, Thank You or Just Because gifts, and they'll be used all year. Go here to see pictures of some of the journal pages.

To order one, go to www.fantazya.ca/diary2008.html
