I recently viewed an hour long tour of Stampington on a DVD magazine called Indie Arts. It was amazing!I have long been a Stampington fan (it was Somerset Studio that introduced me back into the arts after many creatively blank years) and have wondered what the place looks like, what happens my art when it goes there, what the folks look like, sound like and all that. I was blown away watching this DVD that explained all that!
You get to hear the founder & publisher, who is a major visionary, Kellene Giloff explain where the magazine started and where it is going in the future. You hear from Editor-in-chief Jenny Doh, who is so wonderful to work for and who has an amazing energy and drive. You hear from Jana Holstein and Amanda Nolan and more. You get to see them sort, choose, arrange and photograph art work for Somerset Studio. It is a must see for all Somerset fans!
Check out this project of mine. It was sent out by email today for the new Stampington & Co. Creative Impulse weekly email. This project, the 2 sided Desk Poem will be located in "The Studio' on their web page which is dedicated to projects made by products they sell in their online store. Stampington are really stepping up their game with all the new publications and now this email program. Gotta admire their ambition!
Crafting and poetry are my two loves so your little Desk Poem really caught my attention. So pretty! ~Linda
ReplyDeleteso elegant. I love the wooden beads as legs. I am putting on a class for a group of regular scrapbooking moms who are freaking out about altering photographs for artwork. Most of them have been into regular scrapbooking and this whole altered photograph is pretty unheard of around here. After showing my sisier in law some of my work and yours and some Karen Michel books, the class is a go!!
ReplyDeleteYou are very inspiring. Now there is a chatty excited bunch of woman over here who feel that their days of normal memory keeping, has just exploded into a whole new realm. Thanks for your ever continuing inspiration and sharing of your gifts.
Girlie, I am keeping up with all of your fabulous projects and mags. I love it all! Can't wait to get together again...hugs, Mendy
ReplyDeletestampington...*sigh*...so many yummy things on their site...if i'm not careful i can spend way too much money...
ReplyDeleteShona~ I'm so excited I just had to pop over here and ask for any advice you may have. I sent some pics of my tiny house tiles in to the Le Chateau thing, and they had me send in the necklaces. After she got them she asked if I'd be interested in writing an article to go with? I was going to tell you thru email instead of just commenting, buy I didn't see an email only link. I just hope I can write something interesting. aaaahhhhh!
ReplyDeleteoh, I should mention I don't think it's going in the Le Chateau part, I think they're going to put it somewhere else. There are so many I don't know which one!
ReplyDeleteoh! i want to borrow the dvd...can i? :)
ReplyDeleteReally like your two sided poem. You are so wonderful to share all your artistic talent.
ReplyDeleteThat dvd sounds so cool. Loved your project in the Creative Impulse :o)
ReplyDeleteHi Shona,
ReplyDeleteI have been to your web site and photo site. I enjoyed your art the most. You portray a wonderful look and feel. I publish wall art . I feel your artwork would make a wonderful compliment to our growing collection of works. I would love to show your work and sell prints if you are interested?
