I Need to Go To Rehab...

...to take care of this week long (ARTzona withdrawal)

MIGRAINE I have been having!!!

I really miss
all my artistic sisters
and all that wonderful 24/7 addictive art fun we had.
Things are artfully quiet these days.
I think my migraine felt the void and hopped right in!

Actually...

I cannot really blame ARTzona for my discomfort...

although my Muse wouldn't agree.

Unfortunately,

my migraine situation is

definitely a very, very fierce reality...and

I felt just like I look in my sketch above...all week.

 Fortunately, 

thanks to Imitrix, the pain seems to be easing

a bit...good news.

I am certainly glad I am not a die hard Denver Bronco fan

as I don't think my brain would

bounce back to normal...

ev-er!

ARTzona 2014...

 Some artistic love IN...

and...some artistic love OUT...:)

Aaah!

Directly above are the

ATC (Artist Trading Cards) cards I traded at our ARTzona

artist retreat held last weekend in Mesa, Arizona.

40 artists

from all over the USA as well one gal from the United Kingdom

participated.

The cards at the very top are called "signature cards"

and they are given out

by each artist

as a way to get to know one another.

Notice the selection of hearts here...

I think this might

soon become a new collecting obsession

of mine.

I will definitely post the four pages of cards I received

in trade for my ATCs 

a later blogpost...:)

What a gloriously fun weekend

spent with some wonderfully talented artistic Muses...:)

to direct and logical requests.

ARTzona Rocks!!!

Ahhhh...ARTzona!!!

I am still on an artistic high from my newest addiction. 

And,

thanks to each of you wonderful ladies...

my heart and my soul is bursting with artistic goodness.

What a wonder-filled weekend!

xoxoxo
