February, Already??

I cannot believe that today is February 1st.  My how time flies.  Today the other artists and I received our next assignment from Carla Sonnheim today.  We are going to work on mix media giraffes.  I cannot wait till I can get home and dabble in all the different mediums I have to work with.  When I think of mix media giraffes, one in particular pops into my head, it is a work by Elizabeth Hilaire Nelson.  She creates paper paintings and they are wonderful.  She had posted some of her older work recently and one was of a giraffe.  It was beautiful.  In fact I admire her work so much, I just recently purchased a small piece from her.  I have it hanging in my studio with some other art from my friend Kim Hambric.  Kim has worked in fabric and now is focusing more on mix media herself.  There are so many artists that inspire me.  These are just a few.  They all have blogs and when I become a bit more blog savvy, I will be able to add their links.

Go check these ladies out.
