Hi Everyone,

| Nostalgia on page 36 of the Dec issue!! So exciting!!!!! |
This weekend I got the most exciting package in the mail from France. I received the newest copy of the best selling French magazine
Pratique Des Arts. And if that wasn't exciting enough my painting "Nostalgia" was on page 36 in the International Portfolio section!! The editor said it would be in this issue but until you see it in person it just doesn't seem real. So needless to say I'm over the moon about this! One of my goals for 2010 was to be in a major publication, I'm not sure I thought this was attainable, but you gotta dream big, right:)) It feels great to receive validation. Not only that but our blogger buddy Kara Bigda was also in the issue. That's some kind of special bond:)))))

| "The Night Before Christmas" WIP 9.75" x 9.75" watercolor on paper |
I'm also going to give you a sneak peek at my newest painting. Crystal Cook and I pose a challenge for each other on a monthly basis and this month it was my turn to choose the theme. I chose the word "Believe" as our inspiration. My painting is almost completed but I'm calling it quits for the night so I'll have it posted in the next day or so. Until then I'm sharing a glimpse:))

| "Stacked" Gallery Award at Randy Higbee's 6" Squared show |
I also wanted to share that I received a Gallery Award in Randy Higbee's 6"Squared exhibit in Costa Mesa CA, earlier this month!! Extremely happy, I also have a sale from the show.
And for a little Christmas cheer here's a picture of my boys with Santa. This is the first year Steven, my 5 yr old would dare to go near Santa. And because his brother would go so would Sam. And let me tell you Steven didn't waste any time spitting out his list, which I will add was a surprise to Mommy so there may have to be another order filled at the North Pole. Steven also was super concerned about where Santa had parked his Sleigh. So cute:)
