Peace

At a time when the world is overrun with terrorism and fear, I thought bringing a little peace to bear was appropriate. For those who celebrate, I wish you a peaceful Thanksgiving. For those who don’t, I still wish you peace. I encourage and appreciate sharing!:

Love for Mom

A simple one

I can’t say much about this one…but it represents love and hope. This week’s challenge was to use the tangle Hollibaugh–a perennial favorite and one I teach new students all the time. I added in a burst of Arukas for the life-force I want to summon. Update: adding one more since I was on a […]

Rising to the challenge

Last week I promised myself I’d at least participate in the I am the Diva weekly challenge. At the same time, I decided to participate in an ATC swap (Tangle Your Initials), which I’ve never done.

The Energy of a Group

The Energy of a Group Last night I taught my second of twelve classes at the Lansdale Public Library courtesy of a grant from the local hospital’s commitment to mental wellness. I loved the first class I did, and I double-loved last night’s class. There are just no words to describe how some groups have […]

Challenges, Zentangle Classes, and New Job

My head is spinning. Almost literally. I’ve finally completed a weekly challenge (more on that below) while preparing for my second large class at the Lansdale Library tonight. This may not have been such a challenge except that I’ll have returning students getting black tile kits and new students getting standard kits, but teaching everyone […]

What a week (almost a month ago)!

You know that expression, “When you want something done, give it to a busy person”? (And does that question mark belong inside the quotes? I know that’s the rule but it doesn’t seem right since the quote isn’t a question…but nevermind the punctuation ponderings.) Yes. That. Me. Busy. But not in the “we live in […]
