Yes I know where you are coming from Andee - my son is just 16 and I am thinking "only 2 more years" (although I know it will be longer in reality, I can see some light at the end of the tunnel LOL)... Being a mother involved some (a lot of?) sac...

*~Live Your Dreams~* This month is all about your dreams and we are not just talking about the ones you create when you are asleep. We are also going to be looking at the dreams we have when we are conscious.
It's time to Dream Big Ningers!

Over the coming weeks we will be setting a few challenges to get you thinking about your own dreams! So relax, sit back and let your dreams become reality.

..........................................................................................
“To dream anything that you want to dream. That's the beauty of the human mind. To do anything that you want to do. That is the strength of the human will. To trust yourself to test your limits. That is the courage to succeed.” - Bernard Edmonds

*~Current Fortnight Challenge Links~*
Illustration Fortnight Fun – Dream Something New to Try - Give it a go, new experiences are good - we learn as artists through experiencing new things.

Photography Challenge – Something you Enjoy Share your Enjoyment and post photos of things you like - it can be anything at all. Share the story or just let the picture tell it. Everyone has photos of things they like so post away!

*~Build your Dream Studio~* Ever wanted to build your dream studio but can't afford it or you simply don't have the space? WELL YES YOU CAN NINGERS!
This challenge is about building, and no you don't need to use a hammer or a drill. All you will need is your imagination and your dreams. Your challenge is to create your dream artist's studio from cardboard!

This is a lot of fun and it is a great way to share with other artists your ideas for the perfect dream studio. (To find the Forum discussion set up for this challenge, just simply click on the underlined title above). Happy building!

*~My last month on site~*

This will be my last month on the site for a bit, as most of you are aware that I will be returning home to Australia for approx 2 months holiday, as it has been over 2 years since i was last home.
During this time I will not be online very often as I will be traveling the country- Melbourne, Sydney, Cairns and Brisbane (if I am in your area give me a buzz).
Therefore please don't email me personally after the 1st of December. If you have any questions please email the site and one of the fantastic Staff members will answer you ASATC (As soon as they can) . Also the Staff will be running the show while i'm away (while the cats away the mice will play) . So make sure you give them a hard time!!
I will be vlogging when i can and posting updates and interviews along the way. I will miss you all because so many of you are like old furniture but only smell better he he we hope!

Members Naked Calendar site fundraiser

Art from the Heart presents The Naked Calendar

I would like to present to you the promo video for the calendar. Please show your support by purchasing one of these fantastic calendars. You can pre-order your calendar now below using the Paypal button. Please select the price according to your country as postage as been added accordingly. This price is for one fantastic calendar (if you want to order more contact Mary Helena at helpmestaff@gmail.com). Once we have received a minimum number of orders (50) we will start printing and sending! Thank you for your support. ............................................

You have until the 7th of November to place your pre-orders for the calendar. Because it is cheaper to print the calendars in bulk we are going with an initial print run of 50 calendars. It takes around 3 weeks for printing. Then we are allowing 2 to 3 weeks delivery to you and you should receive the calendar before Christmas. So get in quick for the pre-Christmas round as there are ONLY THREE calendars left. After we have received 50 orders we will then start a 2nd round which will be print when we reach either 25 or 50 calendars (just depends on demand). So I encourage you to show your support for the site by purchasing one of these awesome arty calendars.

Suzette Morrow's Online Classes

Suzette Morrow is a fantastic teacher! Here demonstrations are very easy to follow and understand and i highly recommend her. Suzette has just created a new Ning site especially for those wanting to take some of her online courses. They might be cheap (at $5 BUCKS how can you complain?) but worth more than that i can assure you! ;)

Here is the link to Suzette's Ning site if you want to take any of her classes! This is a great way for those who have never taken an online art course but have wanted to try without paying a lot of money first!
