Things to do While on Hold

You finally make the lengthy call that you v have been dreading. You know that it will eat up so much of your time. Your stress level is rising… The party would probably FINALLY answer if you couldn’t hear them if you started vacuuming, doing dishes, snowblowing or using a food processor.

I keep an art journal on my kitchen table. Check out this post for my phone activity for today.

Come One, Come All

2016-09-18-11.17.05.jpg.jpegI believe that the more that you give, the more that you get.  I have often heard that many creative people in our area do not have a place to do art, that they like a class setting, that many are looking for social outlets to share their ideas or to get support and encouragement in their creative endeavors.   I have heard this and have acted!  A huge thank you goes out to our Town Chairman John Hanson and Clerk Dana Hilbert for their assistance in letting us use the wonderful Manitowish Waters Community Center.

The Other Side

The non-dominant hand art adventure continues!   This journey has been amazing and very rewarding. I have decided to call the work that I’ve created with my left hand “From the Other Side”. The work is like none I would have conceived myself ever doing. The challengers have actually been like having art lessons, I have learned new methods.  I have taught myself new ways to do things and have looked at other materials and types of art to continue on this journey. It has been a truly rich and rewarding experience!

The hand-painted  journals are called Midnight Journals because they contain 30 pages of thick, 90 pound black paper. The spiral binding allows for maneuverability.  The 5 3/4″ X 7 1/2″ size are great for going about on merry ventures.  The journals are great for compiling recipes, your favorite newspaper clippings, photographs, artist trading cards, painting with metallic paint or acrylic paint, using gelli-printing, or doodling with gel pens.  No more blank, white page paralysis! 
Each journal is complete with a   custom-made, matching bookmark, a fun gel pen and the front page also contains some painting or some wording that will help you to go ahead with your creative journey.

These journals and other wonderful art created  by artists from the Manito art league will be available for sale at a nacho on December 12th at the Vilas Business Incubator Center located at the corner of Highway 51 and Towline Road in Manitowish Waters.  For more information this sale contact Barbara McFarland at 715-543-2975.
