21 SECRETS.....

THE DIRTY FOOTPRINTS STUDIO....

Has this incredible workshop on right now called "21 Secrets."  You will see it on my sidebar.  I am finding myself short on words and long on art so I will go straight to the art after a short meditation...


When you are with everyone but me,
                    you're with no one.
When you are with no one but me,
                    you're with everyone.
Instead of being so bound up with everyone,
                    be everyone.
When you become that many, you're nothing.
                    Empty.
-Rumi









Hop over to The Dirty Footprints Studio.  This is from Dale Anne Potter's Workshop. You can find Dale Anne at daleannepotter.com/blog/ .  Dale is not only a possitivarian, she is a quality, honest and genuinely frank person who will share her difficult journey with you and how she "personally" became one of the most possitive and inspirational people I know.  I am proud to call Dale my friend.  You will be too. 
On 21 Secrets,  You can read what Dale taught me, what the book is for, what is inside, and how magical it's contents are for positivity, enlightment and extreme upliftment. 
I say no more!
KISSES!
SAMARA

  15. oh my, I'm in love with your book! I have several tutorials culled and sitting in my bookmarks for making books like this. I'm all about paper and pockets and color so your book is awesome to me. The art is also spectacular, you seem to be so good at abstract, I'm so trying to learn how to do that but I just can't figure out how to learn where to put the paint and get that special balance. Beautiful mail art, thanks for sharing!
