Thank you for visiting my art blog! I am an artist in southern California, and this blog is about my journey into art. My art is mixed media original art, and very often my vehicle for sharing is a greeting card. I paint and ink and stamp and rip and shred and glue and emboss, but no designer paper is harmed in the making of my collages. It all starts with blank paper.

Dreaming of Sunflowers


I had to wait until after my sister's birthday to post this card.  The gift I gave her had sunflowers on it, her favorite flower, so I wanted to continue the theme.  Fortunately, it was pretty easy since I happened to have a bouquet of the flowers at my kitchen sink to photograph.  A little high-def manipulation, and I had the perfect photo for her card.

This one was tough to part with, but it went to a good home.  Happy birthday, dear sister!
