Right on that list, Shamsi joins Satellite Writing Class, Shamsi begins teaching Reiki, Shamsi finds new space and announces a Guided Meditation session ;), Shamsi joins Art Journal Love Letters (this time with the intent to actually COMPLETE at least one journal page ;)
See that link up there? the one that says "Art Journal Love Letters"? Yup, go check it, then come back. Or not, but it is an awesomely-brilliant site for inspiration and general art-mukity-groovieness.
So, here it is. Exactly one week after my Rockin' Full Moon Walkin' on Hot Coals Birthday, I sat down with all of my implements of destruction and began.... badly :) but that's okay, cause I knew I would have to mess up a bunch before I found *my* style and that thing that needs to get out of me to make me happy. But I totally finished the texture bases for two pages and gel-mediumed (yes it is now a verb in my vocabulary people) one more page :)...so, um, HA! But I have realized in waiting for Gel medium to dry that I am about to go purchase a hairdryer for the first time in over 20 years.... srsly.
Stuff used:
Gel Medium <---Cause Connie said so. Plus it turns out the stuff is wicked-fun.
Acrylic paints
Groovy multi-sized, round sponges on sticks (who knew!?)
Stencils
Saved mesh-y ribbon
Saved mini-bubbles bubble wrap
Est voila! here we go. This video is HORRIBLE :) so if you watch, I know you are: bored, have nothing better to do with 5 minutes or you must simply be one heck of a friend. oh yeah... and all of the guitar, bass & drum noises coming from the background are my Significant Other's (Shelly) band practice... all rights, yada yada don't matter because you can't make out what's going on anyway ;)
PS - if you watch all the way to the end, you get to see the paint-medium-creative-genius of my Sig-O... a rare treat indeed ;)

Your "significant other" cracked me up when he says "you're not doing it at all like Bob Ross!!!!!!!!!"
That is a hilarious!
On another note, Charlie--I love you!
I love that you find the big things of your life this year as teach writing class, learning reiki, opening a center, teaching meditation...and AJLL!!! You are so silly and blissfully great at the same time!!
And wow, I don't understand you women that don't own a hairdryer!! I'm learning through AJLL that there are quite a few of you....I just figured that everyone needed one--or the world would be full of mushroom heads like me!!!
I'm so happy to share in your creative juiciness!! Keep it coming!
Big hugs,
Connie
Ok...I just read my comment....and, I know you didn't teach writing class--I think I just got a little over zealous for you!
ROFL! :) That's okay :) you can get overly-zealous for me...Goddeses know I do! LOL :)
I loved your video! And I actually really like all your colors and textures. I also like your SO's circles, but I have a thing for circles. :)
I keep seeing people doing AJLL. I know waiting for October is going to be a better time for me to do it, but darn it, it looks like so much fun! Can't wait to see what else you create.
