Hi there! If you're arriving from Alisa's blog, welcome!!
You're just in time to enjoy a few of my finished watercolor/mixed-media pieces before I bind them into a sketchbook. There's nothing more satisfying than to hold a completed art journal that you've created. Well, coffee may be a stronger contender but it ranks up there!
I know Alisa has previously (and gorgeously) shared on her blog how she binds her sketchbooks. I myself have been using this binding matching for over 2 years now, and I must say, it has been one of the best art supply investments!
There's true freedom to be able to work on any size watercolor paper and in any order I want. And because I'm working on loose sheets, I can easily go to my sewing machine to add bits of mixed-media pieces...
...like this art tag. It's held inside a transparent pocket that I sewed with a simple straight-stitch.

That's Stephen. His smile says thank you for stopping by!

Hello Gina :)
Your colorful world is amazing. I love it ! You inspire and make positive and happy space around. Greetings from Poland :)
I came over from Alissa's blog and am happy to have met you! Your paintings are inspiring!!
Thank you Magda! Thank you Jill! I so appreciate the kind words :)
Beautiful artwork!! One of these days, I'm going to order one of your prints to hang on my wall; I know it'd brighten my day every time I looked at it. :)
Coming from Alisa's blog! What wonderful paintings you make and how well organized you!AriadnefromGreece!
Funny I have both you and Alysa on my blogroll list under 'fine art' section :). Reading the post on her blog I spotted a Canson watercolor spiral notebook. I was wondering how you like it. I am still testing different watercolor paper brands and that's the next on my list. By the way, I am in the struggling point of the learning curve :).
I have also come over from Alisa's blog. And oh my goodness, I absolutely love your work and your studio space. My favourite studio supply would have to be my .005 fineliners because I love detail. Thank you for this opportunity. Fingers crossed.
I just popped over from Alisas blog and I'm blown away from your painings. They are so lovely. I think you've got two new fans, me and my DD :-)
Thanks for the chance to win one of these cute little birdies. Hope they would fly to Australia too (just in case we win).
Cheers
I follow you on instagram but don't think I've ever visited your blog page. Such a nice feature on Alisa's blog today! I adore your chickadees!
I love your artwork it is so vibrant and most important you have convinced me to try using my CINCH.
Such beautiful colors! Absolutely lovely. So glad I found you through @alisaburke.
How do I get to the link for your classes?
Long time fan of your work and so glad you are going to do on-line classes. Can't wait.
Greetings Gina,
I came over from Alisa's blog and was so incredibly glad I did. After looking around your blog, I then searched the web for more images of your work. What a wonderful collection of colorful inspiration. Thanks to both you and Alisa for allowing us a peek into your worlds and inspiring others to dream and create.
I tried to leave a comment on Alisa's blog but it wouldn't work. Although I would love to win one of your amazing prints, I just want to say that I've been following your blog for the past 6 months and your work is simply stunning. The way you use colors is unique and I'm always drawn into the picture.
thank you for sharing your beautiful art!
I'm so happy to have found your blog through Alissa's series of artists. Your work is stunning, and I love your watercolors!
I've asked on your IG account but must have missed the answer.. I am dying for the BLUE lesson. When is it coming out??
