Welcome to Episode 180 of the Podcast, the Episode today is titled Spirited
The video for this month with the Art Journal will be ready this week and if you want to play along in an Art Journal that you either are making from scratch, finishing off or from a shop brought one. There is no pressure, just want to get you to take the time for yourself to be creative. You can also think about how the words for this month speak to you and how they impact on the goals you are setting for yourself.

Happy New Year - So we are into the New Year and we have to hit the ground running so that we can get the things that we want to do done.
This was my message last year, a call to reflect and look at what we are going to do as we take the next steps. You have an amazing life ahead of you and you just need to start taking the steps, start small, cause you have got this!
I hope that you have already started and not waited until the 1st January to get things into gear, but that you have been thinking over the past few months what your new direction should be.
Listen to the video and see what you think, join me on the journey, your journey to making the changes you want to see in your own life.
Let me know what you have decided to make your priority for 2020, it doesn't have to be a long list, just start with this month or even this week

Here is one of my pieces for the exhibition with was inspired by the Boro Japanese style of stitching and I have incorporated hand painted fabric, wood from the Moringa and Cotton tree, which makes use of plants that I grow in my garden.

The other piece that I have on display is one that has elements of fabric slashing and incorporates beads, wood and painted fabric, it was great to be able to use all the materials and elements I like using in my work.
