Good-bye 2018 & hello 2019!!

As we head into 2019 I am excited to be part of a creative community called IlloStories put together by two lovely and talented illustrators - Deborah Stein & Erica Root . For the entire year IlloStories will present themes and prompts to help us inspiring illustrators create exciting and new work for our portfolios.

If you are interested in joining the fun join the IlloStories facebook group, and keep an eye out for all the work with the tags @illostories #IlloStories on FB and instagram.

I tend to do well with challenges and prompts (it is my love for being a student :) Below are my #topnine from my instagram feed and 3 come from Creativebug’s class, Daily Painting Challenge: 31 Painted Patterns with Lisa Congdon and one of my illustrations that I did in Lilla Rogers’ Make Art That Sells Bootcamp. So it will be fun to see what will come from IlloStories .

Thank you & peace,

Virginia

this is my ‘top-nine’ from my instagram …

ducks in a row ....

during the course of the past years my blogs have multiplied, to the point that maintaining them has become daunting. and since one of my intentions for 2017 is to get my social media ducks in a row i am combining my many blogs and putting them here on my new website!! 

all this online 'stuff' take time, but my hope is that a year, 2017, is an adequate time to set up my new website, set-up and open my Etsy shop, or at least an online store and get back to blogging, because i truly enjoy blogging.  

during this change-over process i am aware of all these 'rules' and routines about social media and how having all this noise in my head has nearly paralyzed me, so i am trying to get back to basics, what is important ... so let's see how this goes.
