Southern Girl...Northern Woman: October 2011
http://lolasmommy.blogspot.com/2011_10_01_archive.html
Friday, October 14, 2011. It Must Be Time For Art Camp! October to me always means time for. Terri brush's beach art camp. It is a wonderful workshop retreat. Filled with great projects. And a wonderful group of "like-minded" women. Who share the same love of creating art. It is a time for "re-charging" that "creating" need. That I constantly seem to have. And this 4-day retreat never fails. It's also a time for me and my friend christina from ottawa. To reconnect and have many days of non-stop laughter.

Tuesday, August 16, 2011. I'm in Oregon enjoying some sun.FINALLY. Staying at my parents' house and enjoying some day trips. One day we went to Junction City for the Scandinavian fair. That is held there every summer. Here is my sister and I having some fun. Ate some great food there and the bonus was that the sun was shining. Even my sister's little pooch Riley was enjoying the sun. He loves living the life of a prince and being carried around in her purse. For an upcoming show I'm a vendor in.

Southern Girl...Northern Woman: June 2013
http://lolasmommy.blogspot.com/2013_06_01_archive.html
Sunday, June 16, 2013. I came across some images of some vintage western cowgirls. And just knew i wanted to create some pieces with them. I also found a listing on ebay for hair on hide cowhide pieces. When i received them in the mail there was not only cow hides. But also some zebra ones. These are some of the collaborations of the two together. I love the way they turned out. And these next few are not the vintage cowgirls. But these images suited the hides i sewed them onto. Love this lady on the moon.

I hope that they are putting their feet up today. And taking a well deserved break for awhile. They have earned it! And to also meet new friends.
