The Happy Mail Exchange is coming back to the Mixed Media Art Journey group, and that’s why I’ve made my first ever Zine! Watch the process video below and hear all about my plans/vision for this new year… or read on if videos aren’t your thing 🙂
Once again, thank you for being a part of my journey!
After 12 years, I have finally closed down my web “stuff” business and started a new real job that fuels my creative energy. (Consequently, eliminating a GREAT source of stress.)
It’s safe to say… 2018 was a year of transformation for me!
But if you’ve been here since “the beginning”, you’ll know that in late 2017 I started an Etsy shop, and throughout last year it may have seemed that I was promoting new products more and sharing the non-promotional art stuff less. This was never my intention, and it is one thing I will be doing differently in 2019.
So if you’ve stuck with me through the inconsistencies of last year, I hope to make it up to you this year with more art process and tutorials to balance out the promotional stuff! 🙂
With that being said, Mixed Media Art Journey is not just a blog about me and my journey… it’s an entire community of talented artists, each sharing their own journey! The group is everything I imagined it could be, and it’s become more than I ever expected it would be!
For that reason, this year I may be working out out whether or not I’ll wish to continue maintaining this blog and the Facebook page next year, because these 2 things ARE more about my own personal journey and it might make sense to just bring that over to Purdy Creative Things and simplify.
Or, it might make more sense to keep the two seperate?
In any case (now that I’m adjusting to a new schedule) you can expect more consistency in art-related videos and blogs, and hopefully even more challenges and giveaways and all the fun stuff just to thank you for sharing this crazy ride with me.
