Just a quick post to show a work in progress. This is where I make my art, currently working on Les Petites Angels.....this is the first one.

Today I commit....

Today I commit to blogging on a regular basis. Today I commit to art journal daily, to get back on track with my diet and exercise routine, to love more and live deeply. Today I commit to preserve my memories and scrapbook regularly. I went to an all day crop yesterday and got rejuvinated. Today I woke up and felt inspired.

Had some fun at http://wordle.net/ Here is my wordle "Today I commit". Check it out and have some fun. Will post my art journal page later....

I can't figure out how to get the picture of my wordle larger. Comment to me if you know how to enlarge images, thanks. Lyn

Let me know what you think....I'll be posting art journal pages shortly. I am working on Lesson 3,  part one of Artistic Alchemy, been collaging and exploring self....

Tomorrow is the last day of school, I am a teacher, and I am looking forward to spending more time journaling.
