Marney vs. Richard Simmons

 Richard Simmons

I bet I got your attention this time!  Marney verses Richard Simmons?  What in the world does Marney have to do with Richard Simmons?  Well, I think of our beloved Marney as being the Richard Simmons of the art world.  When most people think of Richard Simmons, they think of the ultimate motivator for getting people to lose weight.  I'm sure some people think of his other "interesting" qualities, but we won't go there.  Stick out tongue  Anyway, I was lying in bed last night not being able to sleep, and it popped into my head that Marney is the ultimate motivator for getting people to create art.  (Yep, my brain comes up with strange ideas when I'd rather be sleeping - must be sleep deprivation.)  She has created this wonderful tropical island where artists of all types can share thoughts, join art swaps, and even display their art.  Every month she offers fun studio kits that are so full of goodies they just make us create art.  Then she goes and comes up with offering us books to download that we can alter digitally.  I have been having so much fun doing them!  In fact, Marney just digitized my third one if you want to see it:

Now wasn't this a sneaky way to get you to look at my digital book?  Devil  You'll have to admit, though, that we have a wonderful captain here in Artellaland!  Plus, she's a lot better looking than Richard Simmons!

Bill, you crack me up!  This headline certainly got my attention.  Thanks for saying I'm better looking.  If you saw me first thing in the morning though, you would probably disagree.  LOL.

Your latest book is SOO great.  I just love it.

Hi Bill!

I see you peeked in my gallery and saw my little Chippy. That's the picture I tried to post here so you could have a Chipmunk of your very own. I haven't been successful at posting pix or smileys in the comments I leave on other people's blogs and galleries.It's frustrating because I love my smileys Do you know if there is a way to do that?

As soon as I stop chasing my tail and running in circles, I'll be stopping in to see all that digital artwork of yours that I have been hearing so much about. Soon I hope!

Hugs,

Julie
