new Facebook page for gelatin printmaking

© linda germain – hand on the gelatin

I created a Facebook page for the Gelatin Printmaking Monothon that I am teaching in Austin, TX this spring.  It is still a work in progress.  It does seem like a long way off but I know it is going to sneak up on me.  So If you have friends in the Austin Area who would be interested in an action packed weekend of gelatin printmaking then pass on the link and info.

My host is Cathy Savage and the Women Printmakers of Austin.  So check out the details on the WPA site and sign up early to save some cash!

Use What YOU Have – for life and gelatin prints

© linda germain 2012 Use what you Have – a gelatin plate print

I like to create with this motto in mind – to use what I have.  Instead of looking outside myself for the answers, tools or ideas, I slow down and trust that the answer is within me or very close by.  So as I get ready for the next holiday sale, I am going to use the prints and projects that I already have.  Breathe and enjoy this holiday season.
If you are around join me @

Time Flies – no gelatin printing lately

It has been a while since I have been here.  And the holidays are sneaking up too.  I hooked up with the local NanoWriMo group around the 15th of November and got tons of support to write  my book.  November is national novel writers month and the goal is to write  50,000 words in November.  Well I was 2 weeks late and got to 27,500 words.  I am still motivated and inspired to keep going.

Saying the goal out loud and committing to others means progress for me.
Last week, I went to a great financial training session with Esther Robinson of ArtHome.org.  I am lucky to be participating in the assets for artist program.  So I have been doing some big picture planning.
And to challenge myself  into improving my health I have recently, cut from my diet, eggs, soy, gluten, corn, sugar, dairy and corn.  Wow!  I do feel better already.
