Blogaversary

Today is the day of my first blogaversary!! 

It was one year ago today when I launched Artfully Musing and now 517 posts later; whew what a year it has been.  I am so grateful to all of you who follow me, be it through Blogger, Email (Feedburner), Pinterest, Facebook etc.  Your comments and support inspire me and my hope is always to inspire you.  Thank you.   I would also like to thank the Creative Team members (Connie, Fran, Julia, Karol, Marilyn, and Naomi) who contribute their art to the blog.  These ladies are also my close friends, art buddies and were instrumental in pushing me to do more with my art.  I’m looking forward to another fabulous year of art and sharing.  I hope you are excited to go with me. 

For today’s post I thought I would take a walk down memory lane and post some of my favorite art pieces from the past year.  For me, looking at these pieces I can see an evolution in my art.  I can see where I decided to try new things (steampunk), abandoned the idea that the art had to be a certain size and just went with the size that worked the best and where I tried new techniques and products.  Who knows what will be next.
