grownUPs journaler Toni demonstrating her understanding of contour drawing and exploring the use of positive and negative space, from this evenings art journaling workshop.
Things are settling down in the Santini household. There were no broken bones today and dinner was homemade spaghetti and meatballs. All three kids were smiley (although one's smiles were, admittedly, vicodin induced), homework completed, and animals fed and walked without complaint.
And then Mom got to escape to one of her happy places.
That being grownUP journaling classes.
We meet on the 3rd Thursday of each month for a couple hours in the evening. And tonite I savored every moment of our togetherness.
Our group was intimate (I'm not judging those who opted to stay home and watch the Tigers dominate the Yankees!) and all the more special for it.
We focused on edges, quality of line, and positive and negative spaces. I demonstrated a couple different drawing techniques, and using a variety of fall-related props and mark making tools, we settled in to make some art.
You can see photos of the workshop on my Facebook page. Special props to Judy, Toni, Audra and Candi for allowing me to break away and just create!!
Kim, who's head is spinning at the speed with which this week flew by, or maybe it's the tall glass of wine, or perhaps a little bit of both

Dear Copyright Thieves, Just because it's on the internet doesn't mean it's free for the taking. So let's just stop pretending the internet is a free-for-all. Don't play the card that you didn't know - that's insulting. And don't also tell me that you meant to follow up and get permission but never got a chance to. That's insulting too. And by the way, don't you have a copyright protection notice on your own site? And don't even try and point the finger at a third party who commissioned you to make a copy of my painting - again, an insult - you and I both know the difference between a reference photo and a painting. And don't tell me that I asked for it because I share my artwork on the internet. I share my paintings and ideas and the stories behind them so as to encourage others to pursue their own passions . I do not share so that those lacking integrity and morals can copy and market the images as their own...
