...10-11-12.....

When i peeked at the calendar yesterday, i delighted in the really cool number sequence of the date, 10-11-12.  I had to make an art journal page.  I made this autumn art just so i could date it!  I know that many, but not all years, would have a similar interesting date sequence, right?  Think about it.  I like numbers like that.

I am home for a while, having just returned from Art Is You, my last large teaching venue for 2012.  For now, i'm done schlepping suitcases and boxes of paints, markers, papers and stuff from coast to coast.   What a beautiful teaching journey this year has been.  I am so blessed.  My 2013 is filling up faster than i could ever dream it!  It's time to cozy up to the cooler temps here and get busy writing to finish up my "Artful Lettering" book for Interweave.

 ...note the glorious shimmer and shine of the Silks acrylic glaze 
painted over my watercolor sketch...

..."Autumn is in full swing in New York the warm orange, violet and red is color Glory."

I love my artful life...
