We stumbled into a great little flower shop while on Maui, actually, Howard ventured down an unassuming little garden path and discovered a gem of a store, Anuhea Flowers. Beautiful flowers, yes, but the art work hanging on the walls was whimsical and fun and we learned the art was done by artist Deybra Fair. The proprietor of the flower shop, Judy Mertens, let me take photos to my art heart's content.

Drum Roll: I Won a Great Giveaway!
I want to share, introduce, toot the horn of . . . well, you get the idea . . . Seth Apter. I was introduced to Seth when I joined with him and hundreds of other artists earlier this year in his Disintegration Collaboration. Seth is always coming up with creative ways to connect artists from all over the world. Once I discovered Seth's blog, The Altered Page, I was hooked. You're going to want to take a peek for yourself.
One of Seth's many projects is The Pulse, which Seth describes as : This is an ongoing, online project that focuses on the art blogging community. There have been three editions of The Pulse to date. Two have been artist surveys and one was a project called "Playing Favorites" where the participating artists shared a picture of their favorite artwork that they have made and a story to go along with it.
A while back, Seth had a giveaway to celebrate his blog's two-year birthday. Lucky me, I was one of two winners. I have in my possession a copy of Seth's zine, The Pulse Artist Survey and it is packed with artist goodness. Many of my favorite artists answer such questions as "Top 10 ways to get into a creative groove," or "In a few words or a few sentences, how would you describe your artistic style?"
If you would like to order a copy for yourself, or see some of Seth's artwork that is for sale, check out his Etsy site. In the meantime, here's a sampling of his zine, which also shows the cover art he did for this publication. Thanks, Seth!

Lookie Lookie At This!

Last week I received a message from a friend I met at last year's Art and Soul, Laura. Laura has a relatively new blog, Studio 332, and she sent me a very brief e-mail: Visit my blog for a surprise. Well, I visited and here is what I discovered:

Laura is a very talented artist and seamstress, so go check out the goodies on her blog (and she has some mighty fine music that starts playing, too).
