I'm feel doubly honored to have been asked by Cyndi at http://www.layersuponlayers.com/ if I would do an artist profile to be featured on her site, if you would like to read it click the link below:

And also to have been nominated by
Kris Henderson for the Thinking Blogger Award. If you haven't had the chance to check out Kris' Blog its always a wonderful source of inspiration for me both soulfully and artistically. Kris expresses her thoughts through photos which are not only beautiful they're soothing to the soul. I highly recommend taking a moment to read and view pictures from her recent trip to Africa when you get the chance.

Now to pay it forward I nominate the following 5 blogs that make me think...for me the following blogs either cause me to think and/or inspire me. My nominations (not in any particular order) are:

Joanne Thieme Huffman-has a natural talent for writing and really poses some great artistically provoking questions, I truly appreciate her contemplations that leave me with intriguing thoughts to ponder. Not only that she posts wonderful eye candy to boot :-)

Corinne Stubson-is one of the most generous inspirational artists I know. Her blog is chockful of thoughts, eye candy and inspiration, definately a must see!

LayersUponLayer-Cyndi's blog is a vast source of useful information and endless inspiration! You could spend a great deal of time here and still not cover it all.

Dispatch From LA-I always find this blog a captivating read on art and life in general, not to mention the engaging photos and inspirational art that are posted as well.
Flaurellas- in-between Laurel's hectic day of insanity she posts wonderfully alluring photos of food, floral and fauna and witty sardonic thoughts on life! One never knows what they will find when they visit her blog, which is why I so enjoy it!

I'm a mixed media artist & reposession specialist; recycling, altering & creating with found objects and various mediums. I would never want to settle on just one medium that would be very stifling for me creatively.
