Last week I was over my head busy getting issue 3 of FEATURING<\/a>
\nready to go to the printer’s office.<\/p>\n

Yes, that’s right – you heard well:
\nREADY.TO.GO.TO.THE.PRINTING.OFFICE<\/p>\n

Because the second issue was later then we originally scheduled,
\nwe worked our *** off to catch up so that we can bring out this third
\nissue before Christmas. I’m so proud of my team, my beloved designer
\nand all the contributors who pulled up their socks to make it happen.
\nAnd you know what? There’s just some finishing touches to take care of
\nand then we have a go!<\/p>\n

I recommend you keep an eye on the FEATURING site<\/a> or follow us
\non facebook<\/a>, so you won’t miss the release.<\/p>\n

You may not believe it, but I managed to get some art journaling done
\nin between. Just a few minutes here and there… but the result is that
\nI can show you two pages in my ‘weird journal.’<\/p>\n

Two Lost Souls<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

This background with silhouettes was laying around, waiting to get finished
\nfor weeks now. Finally, I journaled some text, gave it some splashes and
\ncalled it finished. I still don’t know what to think of it. “Weird” maybe?<\/p>\n

24 or 6 to 9<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I know… I know… the song by Chicago is called “25 or 6 to 4”
\nThat is the joke! (This is a spread in my “weird journal,” remember?)<\/p>\n

I painted the face over a photo and it is kinda all right, but I found it a bit easy
\nto do it this way (use a photo as a basis I mean) so I challenged myself to paint
\na similar face without the help of a photo. That painting is on my Chronicles
\npage – but I cannot show it to you as the journaling on that spread is not done
\nyet. I will definitely post it next Friday!<\/p>\n

On another note I want to remind you about my upcoming Art Journaling workshop with Michelle LaPoint Rydell. It runs from February 4th through March 14th, 2013. It’s called MIXED EMOTIONS, and it’s all about expressing your emotions through art journaling. We are going to have tons of fun!!! Here’s what you get…<\/span><\/p>\n
