Hello Everyone,
Just wanted to drop a quick post after months of inactivity. Hope you are all still out there! I'm sure you all know how life can get in the way of your fun sometimes. That's been the story of our life since my last post. Between Dave getting pneumonia, me having a bad fall and the resulting injuries I had and Mojo tearing his ACL and needing surgery, we've had a pretty crazy few months. I've said this before, but I'm going to try to make an effort to check in more often and try to keep everyone a little more up to date with what I'm up to. And again, the best place to follow me is on my art Faceboook page Inky Obsessions. You can also find me on Twitter @plynnt411.
Some of you may have heard that I've also been working with Paula Phillips (also known as JournalArtista) in doing an art gathering of our faithful Ustream followers here in Maryland in July. Twenty three of us are coming together for a long weekend of some art play and fun. I'll post about this more after the event.
I've been doing a lot on my gelli plate lately, mostly playing with my latest release of new stencil designs at iStencils. I've also made several altered cigar boxes I'm calling Keepsake boxes for wedding gifts and new baby gifts. I've done some collages, canvases, gelli printed shirts and gelli cards as well. And some Daddy Vans Beeswax on art tissue. I still like mixing it up and trying a little of this and that. Here are some pics of my more recent works:
More to come and I'll try to do better with some regular rhythm to my posts going forward.
Happy Arting,
Patti
Hi All,
I've been a very busy girl. I should be shunned from the blog world! But I do have some news and I'll include a few pics of some of my latest projects for now.
Mark your calendars for something new with my Ustream Channel!
Saturday 13 September @ 11AM EDT will be my first GROUP stream! My good friends and artists Ellen Smith Vargo and Donna Walsh will be joining me LIVE. We will be co-creating and taking turns doing demos, answering your questions, and sharing our favorite products and resources. But beware -- our usual banter will be going on in the background, so who knows what will happen! If this is well received, we plan to make this a recurring event. We also have a few more art friends that we may rope into playing along with us once we work out the kinks.
If you are signed up to follow my Ustream channel, you'll have already received a notice of the event via email. If you are not yet signed up and would like to join in the fun, click this link and 'follow' me.

Stay tuned -- lots more fun to come!!!
Here are some pics of some of my latest projects. So sorry but I'll have to post more details about the projects at another time, but if you have a specific question about anything, please leave a note and I'll be sure to get back to you asap.
My newest obsession -- Polymer Clay Tiles -- thanks to Laurie Mika:
I've also been making some collages and cutting them into ATC's to send along with orders from my Etsy shop.
This is a canvas I made for my Oncologist's office after taking Jodi Ohl's Angels class at Create in New Jersey:
And a commissioned piece for one of Dave's golf buddies -- this is his 5th canvas I've made for him:
Happy Arting!
