 Good morning lovelies! A few weeks ago I had the pleasure of being interviewed by the lovely Lesley Riley from Art and Soul Radio. My apologies for being so late to post but this is actually the first time I've had the time to sit down and listen to the interview myself. This girl has been busy finishing up at work, moving our gorgeous girl Santana up to Sydney, flying to Qld to teach Paint Mojo to the most wonderful group of women...we shared laughter, inspiration, paint, ink, collage and new beginnings in more ways than one.   My mind has been ticking away with ideas for my book, and for my upcoming lessons for Life Book and Angels in My Studio. We've booked our tickets for the BIG trip to the U.S and Marco will be on a plane next week flying out to Koh Samui for 12 months. I'm breathing through it all. So many revelations in our lives right now...so much wonder...more to share soon    Have a wonderful creative week every...
