Happy 2013!

My sister and nephews have finally got to Europe and now they are staying here in Italy for another week.
That's why I haven't posted anything since Decembre 24th. 
But I've been making art anyway. 
The first page of my new project (a yearly Art Journal) is now ready.
So here is January 2013 Calendar page (I will make a calendar page for every month together with other journaling pages).
If you want to see other amazing calendars, visit 
There's a calendar challenge every month!

This year I don't want to choose a word to follow by.
I just want to be free to do what I want to do.

I wish you all a GREAT 2013 filled with joy and art!

Happy Holidays!

To all my web (and not) friends:
I WISH YOU A SERENE HOLIDAY TIME WITH YOUR FAMILIES AND FRIENDS!
You have been an inspiring and supportive company during this year 2012.
And that's the reason this blog has got so far. :)
THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart!

As I wrote in one of my FB posts, I have been thinking about starting an art journal.
I had already tried it a couple of years ago, but I abandoned it very soon.
Last week I have found some interesting journaling blogs and websites on Pinterest, and started watching videos. There are quite a lot of amazing journal artists out there!!

So, I gathered up all my artsy belongings that I have collected during the years and never used, and pulled out a big Moleskine journal that had been eyeing at me for a while.
The idea is to make a year round journal in which to pour all my thoughts.
I titled it "2013 Believe in Yourself".
Here is the front cover. 
Mixed media.

HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!

Angel

Lately I'm back to angels.
I'm finishing some custom orders and family gifts.
Sister and family and moving to Europe tomorrow and we are very happy. They are coming home! Even if they are at some 5 hours flight. Eheheh! But it won't be the usual 14 hours.
Tomorrow I'll start my 2 weeks vacation, so I'll be able to post more often in the next days.


Have a great weekend!

An Angel for the Children

Reading about the killings in Newtown...
27 angels died....
It's heartbreaking and I cannot add anymore words to this.
I made this sad Angel for those Angels.

New Drawings, First Snow & 2013 Workbooks

My foot is getting better. On Monday I'll leave my crutches. Yay!
Winter is approaching here in Northern Italy, while in the South it's still warm. I like Autumn and Winter time, but here it's very humid, and that's not good for my bones. Anyway it's very humid in Summer, too, and it's not funny either. :)
Yesterday we had our first snow. Started soon this year.

So I picked up my blanket and kept up drawing, while making plans for 2013.
If my 2012 word was "LEARN", my 2013 one will be "ACTION". I'll explain this in another post.

Here is a couple of new "in the woods" series.


I would love to close this post with an announcement:
the 2013 CREATING YOUR INCREDIBLE YEAR WORKBOOKS by Leonie Dawson are here!
You can choose between a LIFE and a BUSINESS workbooks and calendars or have them both.
I found the 2012 workbook very useful and creative. I have been learning a lot from Leonie during the last six months. She is a great coach! And the Goddess Circle community is full of inspiring people.
If you are interested in checking the workbooks out, please click on the pics.
