Next Stop: Ephemera

Sometimes road trips take place through the streets and sometimes they take place travelling through cyberspace. So we interrupt our regularly scheduled posting about my new discoveries on the road to share with you one from the blogospshere. Marty Weil has a fascinating blog called Ephemera.

His love of all things paper is instantly clear from his postings. His focus is on collectible, vintage paper items such as letters, newspapers, advertisements, photographs, and the like. He also posts interviews with people who have some sort of connection with ephemera and/or paper. And I am happy to tell you that he has just posted an interview with me. Click here to go straight to the interview and click here for the general link to his blog.

Thanks for the opportunity Marty!

A big thank you goes out to Debbie Overton who invited me to do a guest interview on her wonderful blog MMCA Marketplace.

Head on over to the interview to see a sampling of my artwork and to learn a little bit more about me, my artwork, and my collaborative projects. And while you are there look around through the blogs and shops of the MMCA members. You will also find free digital images and links to online art suppliers, workshops and retreats, tutorials, challenges, and exhibitions.

Therapy Session

I’m the featured artist this week over at Creative Therapy, a great blog that gives weekly prompts, or catalysts, to get us creating art about the things in our lives that are important to us. I rarely make artwork based on a prompt but I find those that are offered on this site to be thought provoking and quite unique. Click here to see how I responded to the following prompt:

"create art about a time when something that then seemed small happened but then it ended up changing your life"

I often find that seemingly small experiences can have big impact, but life changing? Not usually. But in the case of the moment in time that is represented by this art piece, absolutely!

Q and A on Everyday

Are you familiar with Everyday Artist Studio? Today they are featuring an interview with me about DisCo - the Disintegration Collaboration.

Jenn Mason is the mastermind behind this site and has created an amazing, one-stop hub of creativity. She features video interviews and tutorials, art book reviews, classes, a list of artist retreats, a blog, descriptions of and tutorials for art tools, a list and review of must-visit art shops across the country, and so much more.

Stop by today and visit often.



Thank you Jenn for this opportunity and for introducing DisCo to a whole new audience.

Altered Bits

Wanted to send out thanks to Alicia from Altered Bits, who has featured my artwork on her website today. She contacted me and asked if I would answer some questions about myself, my art, and my blog. Head on over to read the interview, learn a little bit more about The Altered Page, and see some of the images of my work that are highlighted.


If you have never been to her site before, be prepared to spend some quality time on your visit. You can see her own artwork in the gallery, purchase some pieces in her store, share some "love" with the artists whose work is highlighted monthly, see the first issue of her eZine, click through to her blog, and click on her "free stuff" link for, well...free stuff! Going to her website is like visiting a gallery, an art store, and a friend all in one! And I think the design of the website is amazing too! Well, what are you waiting for...click here! And thanks again Alicia!
