My Artsy Advice for the Day!

My Artsy Advice for the Day!

Good morning, Just a quick thought as I zip off to the office this morning! When I find that I am suffering from artist block and the creative process just seems to be stuck, these are some of the steps I take to get unstuck! 

My Art Studio!

My Art Studio!

Good morning! I am so excited to be posting this, this morning! I started cleaning my “art studio” in my house, last Saturday! I thought it would be something that I could just take a weekend and get it done, BUT what it actually ended 

Bliss List Friday

Bliss List Friday

Good morning!!

“We seldom think of what we have but always of what we lack.”
Schopenhauer

This was one of the inspirational quotes that floated across my desk today, and I felt this was fitting seeing that today is Bliss List Friday!

I firmly believe that happiness is based on focusing your energies on all that you have and not on what you don’t have. That is my motivation for Bliss List Friday; I want to share with you all that I am thankful this week, those things that bring me ultimate bliss; a reminder to myself that life is good and I am blessed. In turn I hope that this weekly list inspires you to focus on all that is good in your life.

Here is my Bliss List, in no particular order:

  1. Singing at the top of my lungs in the car while driving myself to work!
  2. Having a FABULOUS husband who makes me feel loved every single day!
  3. Enjoying the warmth of my morning oatmeal in the middle of a sometimes hectic morning!
  4. My sissy, Alex! She one of my best cheerleader, and sometimes you just need someone by your side who believes in you more than you believe in yourself!
  5. Getting to have an Auntie Night with my niece, Megan! I just ADORE this little girl!!
  6. Having my own space to create and make a big mess while arting my evening away! I know I am such a lucky girl!
  7. Have a great book with which I can fall into reading! I am such a sucker for a rich story!!
  8. Being able to hear the stories of other artists, namely Marisa Ann Cummings, from Creative Thursdays!
  9. Dancing like a crazy person, when no one is watching!!!
  10. Getting that wild, zany, blasted art room completely organized from top-to-bottom! Aaaaaah!! My spirit really, REALLY needed that!!

What would have on your Bliss List? I would love to hear in the comments section!

Here is to a FABULOUS day!

Time for a Change!

Good morning! I am not sure if you have noticed, maybe you have, but I really haven’t been blogging here as much as I used to. I started ChristinaVille on April 4th, 2010, can you believe it has really been that long? My intention for 

The Big Gala!

The Big Gala!

Good evening! This is going to be a short post this evening! I have a to-do list that seems to be a mile long, but I promised my sister, Alexa, that I would share some pictures as soon as I was able to locate them.
