100 slips of good intentions......

"Be curious like a cat."  
Oh I love this one for the week.
The Internet offers so much help to look up interesting things instantly.
Here are a few interesting things I'm curious about:
1. Everything French.....I looked up air fairs to Paris. It's not as expensive as you might think!! ;-))

2. Books. I went to Amazon punched in french books and came away with a lot of books both in English and French.

A love story, the story about Hemingway's first wife.
3. Poems. I love poems. I looked up spring poems, love poems, poppy poems, and poems about cats!!! hee hee, there are poems about any subject you can think of.

The Cat of Cats

I am the cat of cats. I am

The everlasting cat!

Cunning, and old, and sleek as jam,

The everlasting cat!

I hunt vermin in the night-

The everlasting cat!

For I see best without the light-

The everlasting cat!

William Brighty Rands

5. I'm now listening the TED lectures on the computer. These are the most interesting people who give free lectures about their successes, lives and encouragements.

 

Well, you see where I'm headed with all this. This weeks little "Good Intention" is an encouragement for me to get myself moving into a new direction. Winter always leaves me a little tired.

I'm an Artist and I make Books

Welcome all my Pink Saturday Friends,


Taking risks, taking any kind of risk is risky!!! Why is it so hard to step out and take risks. I think it has something to do with the opinion of others. So I'm learning this year to jump out and take a few risks. What's on my risky list....I'm planning to take an "Intuitive" painting class. What is that? Best as I can tell its gonna be wild...fun... and very brave!
It's painting without a preconceived idea. Give yourself an emotion, idea, theme and just start painting. Of course there is no right or wrong way to do this and I'm guessing this work is gonna be very free flowing and abstract. But, I love art and I love creating art, any and all art so I'm going for it. So sometimes doing the hardest thing on earth is to act and think for yourself this little class I hope will let me express myself in my own way.
I'm an Artist and I love to make Books.



Jean with her book "12 Day's of Christmas"

 I love art, all kinds of art and I love writing words to go with my artwork. I now have three books. My latest book, "Imagine, Dreams Do Come True" has just been printed. I use a company online to print my books. They are not sold in stores, but if you would like one I will order one for you, sign it and package it up and send it to you. Contact me at jhartart@yahoo.com

My first book, "Artwork From My Heart", is original artwork with poems. It had it's debut at the Northeastern Nevada Museum with the Silver Stage Player reciting the poems on their circular stage.
