I’ve had my own creative challenge this week. I spent all day yesterday printing, cutting and staining the invitations for the wedding.
I’ll have some better photos of the actual design up once we’ve assembled them, but they were masterfully crafted by my sister-in-law, designer Lynn D’Amico. She’s currently accepting [...]

Hallo Monday!
How is your Dreams Challenge going?

Mine’s a mile long at the moment, so here’s the “highlights”
* Clean and tidy so everything’s organised before I leave for Xmas
* Work on the domains and hosting I’ve just bought, and get everything sorted out and online.
* Decide what I’m taking to Kent at Xmas and start packing
* Buy the last-minute bits and pieces I need to
* Do some work!

Ah, this is great! I’ve been thinking about how badly I need to finish up two large paintings from last Spring semester (!) over Christmas break, so hopefully this challenge’ll kick me into gear and I’ll get at least one done soon!
