Ruth introduced me to Winkflash a few weeks ago. I signed up for their services and received a $19.99 special deal to create a photo book of up to 100 pages. Hence, I decided to create my own lesson plan book. I created templates in Word, scanned them in, saved them as [...]

Someone queried me last month asking me, “What does your plan book look like?” I scanned-in my plan book and emailed them back. However, in the past week, I’ve gotten a few more requests for the same thing. Honestly, it’s nothing that special, but I’m posting what one week’s plan looks like. [...]

Good Morning:
I woke up this morning in the mood to have a contest!!
I will do it the simple, old fahioned way, as I always do. Simply leave a comment. When the contest is over, my daughter will pick a number out of the hat. If the number picked matches the comment number, you win. I know, I know, I could use a randomizer, but I'm computer illiterate and it's too complicated for me to wrap my brain around, so the old hat is good for me!!
When the contest is over, I will contact the winner.
The contest will run through Sunday March 2nd, 8:00 p.m. pacific time.
The winner will receive this:
A 4" x 6" print of "Dancing Fiona". This is one of my favorite "Anthropomorphic Animal" pieces to date. She is happy and light-hearted.
Okay, let the contest begin:

I spent a bit of today looking through old sketchbooks and had a good laugh. Take a look at a sketch I completed in 1989:
From 1997:
And some from 2002 (I was a student at Grant MacEwan College):
Evolution is a wonderful thing!

Hello There Blog Friends:
I've been planning on having another contest for months. So, I've decided that today is the day.
Here's the deal: No counting, no guessing this time. Simply post a comment. The contest will end tomorrow, December 13th at 5:00 p.m. pacific time. At that time, I will have my daughter pull a number out of her "hat". (Just know that I am an extremely honest person, and I'll even take a picture of the randomly chosen number)!! That number will match with the appropriate comment number. So, if Ava happens to pick number 5 out of her hat, whoever was the fifth person to comment wins!! (Again, I really am honest)!!
The winner will receive these two ACEO collage prints from my Garden Painter Art Collection~~
The Greedy Raven
Christmas Crow #1
They are appropriate for Christmas and are fabulous for the crow and raven lovers amoungst us!
So...get to posting. I'm holding this contest for more than 24 hours. The winner will be contacted by me, and then I will post the winner and the winning number on my blog immediately after the contest.
For those of you who may not know what an "ACEO" is: ACEO is an acronym for "Art Cards Editions and Originals". There is only one rule to an ACEO. It must be 2-1/2" x 3-1/2". It can be any genre, but absolutely must conform to the specified size. You can even find frames for this size at many different art supplies stores, (and even Target). This is the size of a standard trading card.
Thanks so much for participating!!
Until Tomorrow:

Alrighty, the contest is over and we had many close guesses!
We have 2 winners, both guessed 54.
There were, indeed, 54 cookies stacked on the platter.
The winners are m. and kymsart. I'll contact them privately and they can pick out their free print. I'll post their choices later in the week.
Thanks so much for participating in my silly but fun contests. I always have such a fun day, watching all the guesses come in.
Until Tomorrow:

Good Morning:
Okay...here's the deal. Take a look at the picture of the cookies above. Count them and then leave your answer in the comment section of this blog entry. Whoever guesses the correct number of cookies on the platter, or comes the closest, WINS !! The contest will be open until 8 O'clock pst.
Once the winner has been established, I will contact them and they will be asked to got to My Etsy Shop and choose one print. Any size print will do, as long as it isn't an original. My prints range in size from ACEO 2.5" x 3.5", 4" x 6" and 5" x 7". Once the winner has made a choice, I will send the print. Pretty simple, huh?
I hope everyone enjoys the contest. I always have lots of fun on my contest days!!
Good Luck:
