Merry Christmas!
This fabulous season makes my heart melt! I love the cold so I
can wear my hats and gloves and sweaters, I love the crafts and
the lights inspired in this season, I love cooking and
eating and baking muffins, cookies and to come
up with new inventions I like inventing new unexpected
ways of hot drinks, one has to vary the flavors in
the mornings, like this one... I mixed almond milk with cinnamon
sticks and boiled, then added a spoon of vanilla extract
and honey and it was delicious, I tasted it to see what was needed
and if you like this kind of stuff you should try it, the next morning
I added some oatmeal milk to see if I can make it thicker and was
successful! It was like atole like I wanted!
I love the consistency of atoles, In Mexico is a big tradition but
I want to try healthier options doing

If you have them, please share!
I also want to share this other part of me, I also make music as some of you know
and this time I made a Christmas song and the best part is that is in English!
Some of you have asked me to do this and so I thought of doing it this time,
I hope you like it! We are an independent band and we create everything
at home, it´s a lot of work but it is all made with our heart and soul!
So here it is, enjoy!!

OK, the artful part of this post is next, I created a few digital collage sheets
which I love to make and now I have tons of them! So this time I am
giving you a few of them as my Christmas gift to you!
I hope you enjoy them! You can use them in your art
journals, as tags, as cards as shown, or as your favorite artsy play!
Just click on the images you like and save to your computer and
print in your favorite paper! I used photoshop to add some interesting
effects and make different flavors of the same image!

Usually I like to start with a charcoal easy sketch, seal it and start adding coats of paint, in this post, I share what kind of paints and palette I use!
I am finally starting to feel more loosen when I paint, it´s amazing how long has taken me, I don´t know if is the same for you but now I enjoy painting even more! I can´t wait to share all this new stuff in my future online class, which I hope to start very soon, it´s hard to decide between some vacations or doing it but I promise it will be soon!
Enjoy your christmas gifts! ;)
