I'm a Winner!

I won an artist blog giveaway! The artist? Serena Barton. If you aren't familiar with Serena's work, I say get thee to her website and blog as soon as you can. Serena lives in Portland, is an active, producing artist, maintains a private counseling practice, and teaches art classes, so she is a busy lady.

On May 23, Serena announced she was giving away a copy of L.K. Ludwig's book, True Vision - Authentic Art Journaling. Serena mentioned that if the winner already had that book, then another book would be selected. Well, on June 6th, Serena pulled a name from a hat - it was MY name! Since I already had True Vision, I gave Serena a few ideas of books I didn't have (but would love to own) and told her to surprise me. And surprise me she did. I received in the mail a copy of Lynne Perella's Art Making - Collections and Obsessions. I guess Serena figured out that I am obsessed with collections and art making. Since I don't want to violate any copyright laws, I've included photos of just the front and back covers of the book. But, oh my goodness, you should see what is in between!
