Innovations in Klecksography: Changing the shape of the paper
For this poem, I used the Mustache magnetic poetry kit. Today’s innovations were inspired by a design challenge on Spoonflower.

Discovering a New Palette
Sunday morning I was debating whether or not I should order a new little watercolor kit because the one I’ve been using is almost out of paint, but then I remembered an old Gallery art kit in my closet.

To further my klecksography innovation, I started with the eye-dropper and let that layer dry. Then I tried different size brushes. Flat vs.Continue reading “Exploring Klecksography is Free and Fun!”

This image makes me think of the dysfunctional family in Close Encounters Of The Third Kind when Dad is throwing the plants into the kitchen to make hisContinue reading “#Writober Day 10: Voyeuristic”
Happy Halloween!
This is the first year Gator McBumpypants and his friends decided to get dressed up for Halloween. You can tell it was all Dee Dee’s idea, but I think Herman’s going to have the most fun. This year’s jack-o-lantern won “Best in Show” and “Most Creative” at the annual pumpkin carving party. I won thisContinue reading “Happy Halloween!”
I’m excited to say: It’s that time of year again!

Great News for Writers and Anyone Who Wants to Write!
Sometimes things just go right. And when that happens, I get excited and want to share. I got struck by the spring cleaning bug and in my sorting and tossing, I found a copy of Writer’s Digest that was part of the swag from an author meet I went to last year.
