RAW Voting Starts Today

In May I participated in a RAW: Natural Born Artists showcase in Omaha. I had a blast showing off all of my hand painted jewelry, and checking out the other artists' work. Each year RAW honors the top artist in their category (mine being accessories) in an event called RAWards. The first step in promoting my jewelry is to get as many votes from my supporters as possible. So, for the next 7 days I'll be posting all about the artful accessories I put my heart and soul into creating through Watercolor Submarine, and asking for your help to advance to the next round of RAWards!

Click HERE, take a small moment to register your email address and vote for me from my RAW profile. If you're feeling extra generous come back and do the same tomorrow. You can vote once per day through October 8th!

Here is an example of what you're voting for. All of my jewelry features some type of water-dwelling critter:

A Peony Bouquet

Jason and I had supper with my Grandparents yesterday. We enjoyed our visit, hung some new blinds, ate our fill of BBQ ribs and visited my grandparent's garden. My grandma was nice enough to let me cut some of her peonies to make a bouquet for my kitchen. It's fantastic to have fresh cut peonies around the house - they look and smell wonderful!

 

Character of the Day: Tiny the Squid.

Tiny is, well, tiny. But his small size doesn't stop him from being a ferocious boxer. His mantra: "Float like a seahorse, sting like a jellyfish."
