Guest Post at Handmade Business Today!

Hey folks! I almost forgot to share but I have a guest post over at Handmade Business today! It's titled How Becoming a Mother Helped Me Make the Leap from Baby Bottles to Professional Artist. I had a lot of fun writing it and hope that it encourages all the other mothers/mompreneurs/artists/crafters out there. The post relates how I believe becoming a mom was actually responsible for me daring to reach for that art career. How the combination of roles can benefit all of us, and how if you look at something from a slightly different angle, you can really appreciate how wonderful it really is.

SO please, hop on over to Handmade Business and read the post. Thank you!!!

PS- if you'd like here are a couple of links to my past posts that are about the mama/artist connection!

Art Biz Mama's- Interview


The art fair prep is in full gear today and I have my last plein air watercolor class. That 6 weeks went by so fast! So today I thought I'd send you over to check out an interview I did for Dana Barbieri. She's another artist/mom who's living the creative life and because we have so much in common I knew the questions would be great ones and applicable to moms & artists. They were. :)

The interview is part of a series she does called Art Biz Mama's and if you have a chance, check out some of the past interviews in this series on her blog. They're fabulous and insightful!

Plus, check out Dana's art when you're over there. I love her patchwork effect with paper and paint. Enjoy- I'm off to work.;)
