Well I promised you some big changes...and here they are!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I've changed the name of my business!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I will always be Baxter's Mom,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But I've been feeling that my business has outgrown the name,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Baxter's Mom</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It was great while I was a little more "crafty",</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But, now that my focus is on my art,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I've gone to simply</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Sylvia Drown, Mixed media Artist.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
I have also moved my blog!<br />
You can now find me at<br />
<a href="http://www.sylviadrown.com/"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">www.sylviadrown.com</span></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
I will no longer be posting here<br />
so, come on over and see what else is new!</div>

Hi Everyone! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I feel like it's been forever...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm afraid to actually look to see when my last post was. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm been going through some family "stuff", </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and I've been a little "out of sorts". </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But, I'm back! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
New Etsy listings are up, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and I'm actually doing a little painting!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I know these have been hanging around the studio a bit, but they are finally out there:</div>

I know, I know, I know...it's a huge time sucker...but, also a huge source of inspiration. Everytime I go on, I find something new and exciting that I want to make, have in my house, visit or something! I ran across this video that I would love to share with you:<br />
<br />

<br />
I'm not sure how make the link from Pinterest, but I love her Art Journaling Technique. Check it out and let me know what you think...<br />
<br />
Also, come and visit my boards on Pinterest: <a href="http://draft.blogger.com/goog_1140823504"> </a><a href="http://pinterest.com/syldrown/" target="_blank">Sylvia on Pinterest</a> If you need an invite, just let me know!Baxter's Momhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02467966653177997378noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7380190171284038115.post-20790927286455618012012-06-25T19:48:00.000-07:002012-06-25T20:22:08.287-07:00Just What I NeededYep, I think it finally gave me the push I needed. My absolutely favorite Scrapbooking Store, <a href="http://www.mygreentangerines.com/" target="_blank">Green Tangerines</a>, hosted three classes taught by <a href="http://www.staycedewid.com/" target="_blank">Stayce DeWid</a>, a teacher for <a href="http://mytatteredangels.com/" target="_blank">Tattered Angels</a> who is now owned by Canvas Corp...or something like that. Anyway I love Tattered Angels Glimmer Mist! My sweet neighbor, Kristi, and I once went wild with it for days making flowers from vintage book pages and vintage sheet music. But now, Tattered Angels has come out with so much more...Plain Jane and Glaze and Glam and Chalkboard. What to do with each one?...how are they different?... what to use, where? I sure didn't know. So, one of the classes offered was a technique class...teaching all about all the different Products. Just what I needed!!! So, of course, I signed up for that. She was also teaching a Mixed Media Art Journal class...and you know I signed up for that! So, I was there all afternoon...with other scrapbookers and mixed media artists, getting messy and having a great time! Sure helped to get me out of this funk.<br />

I've been cleaning and re-organizing in my studio all day. I just had an appointment scheduled for tomorrow, canceled...so I have a free day that I didn't expect! Keep your fingers crossed that I actually get to painting!Baxter's Momhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02467966653177997378noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7380190171284038115.post-67677323533299330492012-06-12T16:29:00.001-07:002012-06-12T16:29:35.847-07:00Slow Day<div style="text-align: center;">
So much to say, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
but for some reason I can't seem to find the words. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have a lot of sadness in my heart right now, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
which is impacting me in so many ways. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I've made no Art. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But I have tons of ideas floating around in my head. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Been trying to get a little organized with Paperwork...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
it seems to pile up so fast. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Also get my Creative Biz organized. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I think it's time to really take it seriously </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and let it fly! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Taking a couple of classes, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
but so far behind...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'll share more with you soon. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Just hoping this funk will go away soon...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and my mojo will come back soon.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Sorry for the sadness, today.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Don't usually like to bring it to this blog.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But, just wanted to let you know</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

I just love thinking about all the positive energy...I think I have been missing that in my life...and needing it in my life...must open my heart to it.<br />
<br />
Spent quite a while in the back yard garden with the pups. Lulu is getting so big! You know, when she was little Baxter let her do anything to him...sit on him, step on him, pull his ears and tail...he was amazingly patient with her and taught her the rules of the house. But, now...since she's gotten bigger...it seems like he has lost his patience with her. I think he is just trying to teach her some manners. This little Lulu is one smart cookie...but she is not liking the new rules. Poor Baxter, she terrorizes him! Today, he found a good hiding place...he thought. I mean he is a hundred pound dog, so it's a little hard to hide.<br />

Today, I turned 64...I know, an old lady, right? It was a quiet day...a good day for reflecting...<br />

Sunday...Mother's Day. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Since I knew I wouldn't be seeing either of my kids, I decided to treat myself to a workshop by <a href="http://kellyraeroberts.com/" target="_blank">Kelly Rae Roberts</a> and <a href="http://www.superherojournal.com/" target="_blank">Andrea Scher</a> at <a href="http://www.teahouseartstudio.com/" target="_blank">The Teahouse</a> in Berkley. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This was not your typical workshop. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It was Brunch with Kelly Rae and Andrea and and 19 other women, and just the opportunity sit around and talk about anything we wanted to talk about. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Sorta like the coming together of like-minded souls. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I was a little worried, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
wondering what I would be able to contribute to our conversation.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But, the moment I walked in, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Kelly Rae welcomed me with a big hug </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and I could just feel the energy of the room...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
so positive, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
so warm, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
so nurturing, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
so comforting. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The group was perfect...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
the universe had certainly brought us together at this time and place for a reason. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This day was something I have needed for so long...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
something that I craved. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Something I knew I was missing. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We laughed, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
we cried, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
we told stories, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
we opened our hearts to each other </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and connected in a way I've never know before. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
In a real way. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We identified our own super powers. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We became a Tribe! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It truly was a day of magic!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'll leave you with the sneak peak picture we got to see before Sunday:</div>

Have you seen it? </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My Mojo, that is. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Don't know why...but I'm still not inspired. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm stuck. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I sit in my studio and seem to go blank.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Yuk.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm not liking this at all!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So, I've decided to start The Artist's Way. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So, tomorrow morning I start with my Morning Pages. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Brain dumps to try to get rid of all the "stuff" in my head, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
so my creativity will come back. </div>

What did you do?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Has anybody out there worked through</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
"The Artist's Way"?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Did you like it? <br />Did it work?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I would love to hear from you!</div>

So, I didn't get back to my canvases today, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
but in an effort to stay on track...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I spent a bunch of time searching the Web for tools to be more organized for us Artsy-types. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And look what I found! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Beckie from <a href="http://www.infarrantlycreative.net/2012/02/free-printable-blogplanner.html#comments" target="_blank">Infarrently Creative</a> has come up with a brilliant Blog Planner with free downloads. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And she even does a video on how to put it together. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="http://wendolonia.com/blog/2012/04/18/homemade-blog-planner/" target="_blank">Wendolina</a> took this planner </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and put it together with these awesome free printables from Aimee at <a href="http://sprik.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Sprik Space</a>.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Adorable!<br />
<br />
So, this i what I have now<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
I think I'll add a couple more sections with tabs<br />
then, put it all together!<br />
<br />
More, when it's finished... <br />

That is all I got done today...except for moving furniture and re-arranging some things. My back is killing me and I am exhausted. This is really too late for me, but I wanted to do a quick post to show you that I did SOMETHING!<br />

I really hope I can start on some backgrounds tomorrow...no promises, though. Monday for sure!Baxter's Momhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02467966653177997378noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7380190171284038115.post-9826947096358010072012-04-26T21:34:00.000-07:002012-04-26T21:34:01.711-07:00FOCUS!<div style="text-align: center;">
Have you ever felt so overwhelmed with all the ideas and stuff </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
that's swimming around in your head? </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
All the eye candy on the Internet, Etsy, Facebook, Pinterest...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
pretty much everywhere you turn. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
"Oh, I need to do something just like that." </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
"I love that color combination...must put it down on canvas." </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
"What an awesome idea for the bedroom."etc., etc. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And you really don't know where to even start? </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Well this is exactly how I've been lately. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I can't seem to quiet my mind and start anything! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Lots of ideas...but no action! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Well, I had lunch with two of my "Flyer" friends, <a href="http://www.simplereminders.me/" target="_blank">Jen Slutsky</a> and <a href="http://tatterednworn.wordpress.com/" target="_blank">Janet Forrest</a>...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and of course we talked about this. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Their basic advise...make a list, focus and just start doing something! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So, as soon as I got home, I did a little cleaning in the studio...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and found some canvases that I had started and for whatever reason never finish. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Most had backgrounds that I didn't even like.<br />
<br />
So, I've gathered them together<br />
and first thing tomorrow<br />
they all get fresh coats of Gesso<br />
and I will get to work!<br />
<br />
I think just starting to work on them will inspire me...<br />
at least, I hope so!<br />
<br />
Keep your fingers crossed for me.<br />
<br />
Here's my stack.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Tomorrow I'll check in and let you know what kind of progress I've made. </div>Baxter's Momhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02467966653177997378noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7380190171284038115.post-71613291629210247572012-04-16T13:13:00.000-07:002012-04-18T22:59:49.056-07:00Back to Business!Well, Easter is over...we had family over for a few days of Easter Egg Hunts and BBQ and just enjoying the wonderful weather we are having.<br />
<br />
Baxter's Papa has gone back to work...his shoulder is doing so much better, and he was going crazy at home. And, you know how it is...if he's going crazy, then I'm going crazy too!<br />
<br />
So now we're back to me and the dogs...let see if I can actually get something done now!<br />
<br />
I did post two oldies but goodies in my <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/BaxtersMom?ref=pr_shop_more" target="_blank">Etsy Shop</a>. These two are some of my first pieces and biggest sellers. I just have a few left, and I'm not sure that I will print again. Check them out!<br />

I will be adding more prints every few days...so keep checking!<br />
<br />
I have a little change going on here...haven't been doing any new art...but my Sewing Room has been calling me. So I am finally making some curtains and cushions, etc. I hope to finish this new project, but I know my Studio will be calling me soon!<span id="goog_1618277508"></span><span id="goog_1618277509"></span><span id="goog_144077925"></span><span id="goog_144077926"></span><a href="http://draft.blogger.com/"></a>Baxter's Momhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02467966653177997378noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7380190171284038115.post-14847801972066342492012-04-12T18:13:00.000-07:002012-04-12T18:13:45.132-07:00I Was Featured in This Awesome Treasury!<h2 style="font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-left: 10px;">

All I can say is that I have been just crazy, busy.<br />
<br />
I used to be totally into scrapbooking. Mostly for my granddaughter...but she is now 14 (14???) and takes so many pictures of her and her friends that my little scrapbooking has really fallen by the wayside. For the last few years I have really been hooked on Mixed Media. So, I decided it is time for a major purge. As luck would have it, my local and all time favorite scrapbooking store <a href="http://www.mygreentangerines.com/" target="_blank">Green Tangerines</a> is having a Trash to Treasures Sale this coming weekend. So I have been up to my ears (literally, at times) in the purge:<br />

I have to say, I am so ready to be done with this and get my Studio back!<br />

The great news is the Baxter's Papa if doing much better...of course, he still can't use his left hand or arm, so he's still pretty helpless. Although, sometimes I wonder...<br />

Well, as much as I'm loving my Letter Love Class...I switched gears for a little while. One of the other classes that I signed up for is Juliette Crane's <a href="http://juliettecrane.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">How to Paint a Girl</a>...another wonderful class. Another recommendation. Love her techniques! I have been drawing and practicing eyes, and finally felt ready to make a new girl with eyes! Tell me what you think...but please be gentle...<br />

Noooo!<div style="text-align: center;">
Well, I know I haven't posted in forever...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
but I have been busy (and creative)! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The biggest impact has been <a href="http://joannezsharpe.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Joanne Sharpe's Letter Love Class.</a> </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This class has truly been amazing. This Joanne's first online class...but she is a pro! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There is a new class posted every single day in February...for 29 days!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
In addition to the class blog, she set up a Facebook Page, and Flickr Group and a Yahoo Group...all are very active! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I so recommend this class...it has been a major addiction for me...the price is right and the content is incredible! <br />
I'm actually way behind, because I like to really play with each lesson...<br />
I need to catch up, but the class will be there forever!<br />
<br />
Here's a few of the things I have done:</div>

Has it really been this long since I last blogged???</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Terrible, I know!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I keep trying to do better...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Life just keeps getting in the way!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There are just way too many incredible classes out there.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
By out there...I mean e-classes</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
on the internet.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Classes that you can take at your own pace,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
at home, in your jammies...if you want.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Of course, in my attempt to "FLOURISH",</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have signed up for way to many,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I am now driving myself crazy!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Of course, Baxter's Papa would say I won't have far to go!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have always been a HUGE fan of Lettering.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Wonderful, creative fun lettering</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
ala <a href="http://www.lindsayostrom.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Lindsay Ostrom</a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
She has always been my Guru...pure genius.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I always said I want to be her...at least the letterer part!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I've taken classes over the years, and I can letter OK...but in my effort to "FLOURISH",</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I want to learn more, do better!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So, today I will show you the class I am working on today...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and believe me I have several more to show you!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
I actually found her through Pinterest!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
One of her Journal Pages was one of my first Pins!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I am so loving this class...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
her videos and PDF's are terrific.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We'll be working on three Journals.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here's the one I am starting with.</div>

First assignment: Make a Practice Letter Love Journal.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Made the journal with one of those inexpensive composition books</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and covered it with a Journal Kit from the <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/BeeAltered" target="_blank">Bee Altered</a> section</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
of <a href="http://www.mygreentangerines.com/" target="_blank">Green Tangerines</a>.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Second Assignment: Pull out all your black pens and write the alpha letters with each</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and label with which pen was used.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhLHJ_YaCV7Y187yZkw8GWwkuNh-aGW8DJ4T_q6l2E3s24023ACSdNDcpVEHTXbDHIwCUJcVMySoFjfqnoVhBOY45u8nNjUsIbxRx5iYXX73zht4osXKuwFC_J4aHKzjboRAaR_yM3X5OY/s1600/IMG_0245.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="213" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhLHJ_YaCV7Y187yZkw8GWwkuNh-aGW8DJ4T_q6l2E3s24023ACSdNDcpVEHTXbDHIwCUJcVMySoFjfqnoVhBOY45u8nNjUsIbxRx5iYXX73zht4osXKuwFC_J4aHKzjboRAaR_yM3X5OY/s320/IMG_0245.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here's the first page...and they keep going...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I obviously have way to many</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
but it is nice to see how they look in comparison to each other.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Along with this class, we have a very active Yahoo Group and Flicker Group!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You can start this class anytime...and I highly recommend it!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
More tomorrow...</div>
