Ask Ivy – Composition & Style

Hi there lovely people,

Well…I know I usually post my “Ask Ivy” videos on Wednesday but I didn’t want to detract from launching my sweet friend’s new online workshop! So – I am here today to answer some more of your questions.

I hope this addressed some of your own concerns or inquiries! I love doing this so feel free to shoot me a question.

Also, here is a link to my NEW Resource Library where you can download those composition sheets I mention in the video. Very handy indeed! Plus, you can check out some of my fav You Tube videos, supplies, book and more! Enjoy this special library where I will be adding new useful info regularly!

Ask Ivy – the Inner Critic & Life Balance

Hi there readers,

How’s life been treating you? We are still recovering from the long weekend and are headed into a heat wave here in Portland! Yikes!

I have managed to stay cool in the studio and just finished shooting my next “Ask Ivy” episode. In this one, I answer a couple of questions about the inner-critic and finding (or not finding) balance in my life ;) …check it out…

So here are a couple of books I would like to recommend on these topics that are sitting next to my bed…

Love this guy’s whole belief that we are not actually after balance but rather satisfaction! I like that he de-mystifies the life-work balance concept…especially since it eludes me! lol!

And this one just arrived on my doorstep. It is pretty, inviting and full of wonderful ideas, inspiration and creative ways that we can work with our inner critic…

Ask Ivy

Hello there and Happy Wednesday! 

I wanted to pop in and tell you that I’ve started a new segment where you – my fellow creatives – ask me your questions about creativity, art making and living an artful life. Every Wednesday, I post a video where I choose a few of your questions and do my very best to answer them. If you would like to submit a question for me, you can go here.

You can watch the first episode below…

Also, I would love to personally invite you to my Facebook Creative Community! A vibrant group of wonderful creatives have gathered here to support, inspire and connect with one another.  We would love to have you!
