Graduation time... sniff sniff, my younger one finished high school... and it required 100 errands and award ceremonies. Why don't they make all into one? Maybe because they do not want all their audience in a comma by the time they finish... I guess it is better to have them divided in separate interests I suppose...
I have been taping, editing etc a class, plus one that is back at U-thrive yaay!
Also I started to use more the instagram, which is easier to click an image and post from there.... I still love the blog more but it requires me to sit, think, type something more or less cohesive lol and transfer my said clicked images into the computer.
In general, I have been spending less time online, and more time painting.
Anyway, here is a picture of what's on my desk at the moment. One of my art journals, and the beginnings of some tiny dolls: ♥
Excuse my messy desk. I wanted to participate in the 6th anniversary of WOYWW What's on your work desk Wednesday: Congrats! I have participated in the past, always interesting!

Love the painting on your desk, it is wonderful and I am curious as to what you are sewing on the paper plate!! Happy 6th WOYWW to you, what a lovely whirl around the world snooping this is! Annette #15
ReplyDeleteI actually use the big needle to poke holes in the clay, for my dolls :oD The actual sewing will come last wiht their clothing, but I post more of that in my doll blog
DeleteYour painting is gorgeous. You have a way with faces. And it was super that you could join us for this big anniversary bash, too. Can't wait to see how that clay doll develops. Hope you will share it in weeks to come.
ReplyDeleteHappy, happy 6th WOYWW anniversary from #1.
Lovely painting in your art journal and those little dolls really are teeny. I don't know how you have the patience to do it!! I certainly wouldn't.....
ReplyDeleteThanks for dropping by my blog earlier, Happy 6th WOYWW,
hugs, LLJ 13 xxx
Happy you chose to participate today. And not at all alarmed by the plate full of teeny body parts! I couldnt agree more about your leisure time- spend more painting and less online, it's definitely better for us and so much more productive - but not easy..I'm as addicted to the blogging as I am to the paper!
ReplyDeleteLove those colours on your painting! Wishing you a great crafty woyww year :)

Gosh that doll IS tiny!!! But I know it is going to be fabulous :D XXX
ReplyDeleteThanks Gina! :o*
DeleteI love the painting in your journal! Yes, blogging can take much of your time (especially for me, as I'm not English and have to think harder to write in another language...) but I still prefer it over the other social media. It's more personal I think... Thanks for your visit to my blog earlier. Happy woyww, happy 6th anniversary and a hug from Holland! Marit #43
ReplyDeleteWonderful journal face and those doll parts look really interesting. Looking forward to seeing how they evolve.

Well, not exactly easy, but if you like sculpting, they are a LOT of fun! :o)
DeleteJac, I can't leave a comment in your blog because I do not use google+ but I went to visit.
Hi Martha. Good to see you and awesome goings on as always. You are always so busy. Congrats on son's grad, now the real work begins.:) tee hee. I like woyww as well. I used to do the Wednesdays but only do it from time to time now. Take are and it's starting to heat up.
ReplyDeleteYou call that desk messy? No way! Love the journal page, Valerie
ReplyDeleteBusy, busy time of the year. I like the face in your journal. Such a beautiful portrait.
ReplyDeleteGreat face developing there? Love the shadows, creates so much depth x
ReplyDeletegraduation seems like it is a huge deal over there, whereas thankfully it is quite subdued over here... and you have soooo much on... it is amazing you get anything done at all!!!
ReplyDeleteYes, they make it so out of proportion here, divided in several days for several things... you would think they finished a master degree or something lol
DeleteLove that portrait in your journal! yes, all the social media can take art time away but it's a matter of finding the balance:)
ReplyDeleteAround here, there's no such a thing as balance hahahah! More like a sea-saw :oP
DeleteLovely portrait page and it looks like a busy desk! Congrats to your daughter.
ReplyDeleteLove the face you've painted and interesting little body bits. You sure do make a big deal out of high school, they only do that for college here thankfully. Enjoy all the celebrations.
ReplyDeleteOh, not me... I kept it as simple as possible, lol ;o) We are all done, thankfully.
DeleteCongratulation to the younger one and the proud mama!
ReplyDeleteLovely face, and I can see your desk is just as overloaded as mine. LOL can't get enough stash. Thank you for promising words over at my site, can't wait for the class to begin.
ReplyDeleteHi Martha. I went to see the video on the burn. Totally awesome. Thank you for introducing me to this artist. I will at sometime do a link or post that video on my blog. I can understand his feelings. It's not a bad idea, a cleansing of sort with old and tattered works of past. I may find myself in the studio within the next few days. Thanks Martha.
ReplyDeleteOh the year of grad is insane alright!! Congratulations to your youngest! Lovely journal and love seeing you on instagram!
ReplyDeleteHugs Giggles
Great work you got going...hope it ends beautifully. Best wishes!
ReplyDeleteYour desk is fascinating with so much lovely stuff to mooch through. thank you for sharing it with us and for your visit to my blog this week. Have a good time with those graduations ceremonies. xx Maggie #8
ReplyDeleteYou sure have been busy, it's good you find some time to do art in between. My workdesk always looks like that ...
ReplyDeleteI haven't participated in WOYWW for ages! I love your journal portrait and I'm looking forward to seeing what you do with your little dolls. xx
ReplyDeleteWow! You are so busy. I love your art desk and your artwork is lovely.
ReplyDeleteLove those vibrant colours in your journal page!
ReplyDeleteWonderful face! I can't wait to see the tiny dolls, you will come back and link it up when you have done the doll faces? I think they will be very inspiring seeing faces in a different dimension :) Thank you for linking up to Show Your Face this week. Kx
