I'm Published!

Whooo whooo! 

 Just out in Somerset Gallery is an article on Steampunk Birds. Several months back Lynn Stevens of Trash To Treasure Art hosted a play day in her lovely studio. Several friends got together for a day of artistic bonding, wonderful mocha lattes (made by Lynn's wonderful hubby) She hand carved us all a bird blank to start with and we went from there. It was a wonderful day and one I will always treasure!

This is my bird... I really think my pictures are better than the magazine :)) but they were trying to get all of them at there best angle so that makes it a little harder to photograph.


Our article did not make the the preview so I made a little preview for ya! ... Enjoy!
