Here is the 2nd of 100 latte stones that I will be painting as a part of my latest project 100 Latte Stones in 1 Year. Painted upside down so that any drippiness would go upward. Earthy color dabbing and blending… Ta da! Commentary from the Video Blog
Summer surfing on Guam…definitely not peak season, but great for kids! I still enjoy surfing every once in awhile, but I am also happy to chill on the beach and watch others enjoy the water. I’ve been having fun trying to get some good footage of my son, my little surf grom. He’s had fun …
The other day my older son was out surfing with his dad and friends. My little one came with me to my monthly radio show and the day evolved into date for the two of us. It was nice to spend some fun time with him, I want to do the same with his brother …
Here is the 1st of 100 latte stones that I will be painting as a part of my latest project 100 Latte Stones in 1 Year.
I was recently featured on Blue Sun Studio, Inc. for a website critique by Deb Dorchak and Wendi Kelly, two amazing web designers (and authors to boot). This was exactly the kick in the butt I needed to make some big changes to my website. I ended up updating my existing theme instead of purchasing …
So if you haven’t noticed already, we’ve got a snazzy new logo that just happened to get painted today. I also cleaned up the site a bit, updated the theme and all kinds of other stuff, made some awesome featured photo sliders on the home, art, & events pages, spiffed up the free offer & …
Just finished a piece called “Flourishing” today. Took video footage and made a time-lapsed movie.
Took a walk with the boys at Ipan Beach. Had the place to ourselves, love midweek, midday beach visits! We walked barefoot (okay mostly me) on the sand and then onto the rocks, along the grassy path, spotted some fish, a sea bird, and looped around to Jeff’s Pirates’ Cove, and walked back to our …
Today my 5 year old and I went to visit the Amot Taotao Tano farm in Dededo here on Guam. A friend is working there part time for an internship, so we went up to help transfer some Shiso plants. On the Amot Taotao Tano website, it states: The Amot Taotao Tano Farm is there to try …
Since I haven’t ordered any large stretched canvas lately, I went to Ross to pick up some big print pieces on clearance to paint over. The canvas is not as high quality as the ones I usually order, but I use thick layers of acrylic paint, so it reinforces the whole piece anyway. It was …
The awesome thing about working for yourself, making your own schedule, AND homeschooling, means we get to go to the beach any day we want, and we can avoid the weekend crowds if we wish. So on a quiet Wednesday, we headed down to Talofofo Bay for a family beach day. Some friends came down …
Earlier this week we spontaneously decided to finally check out the Talofofo caves. I hadn’t been there since I was a kid, and my boys recently expressed an interest in going up there. It was awesome! I forgot just how many caves there are, and what a cool adventure it is to explore. We will …
I did a couple makeovers on some old pieces this past week. One was the Protection Shield that I created over a year ago. I added a lot to it, redefined the owl, gave it new life. Here’s the before: …
The last painting I did was of 3 latte stones I painted over an old piece. The old piece was titled “Bubblegum Jungle” and was an abstract splash of red, silver, green, yellow and other squiggly blends. I used silver and gold to paint 3 latte stones over the bubblegum jungle. My personal symbolism for …
This week I started a Facbeook group called Living, Learning, Raising Guam: Resources & Support for families on Guam. It is a place for parents, families, teachers, and anyone who has great ideas and resources for living and learning on Guam. It is a place to share, to ask questions, to seek support, to find ideas …
