Okay so I did something a little chaotic this week.
I pulled over 20 paint night paintings out of their frames and cut them all up. Some are becoming journal covers, some got torn into collage scraps, and a few I might give away if anyone wants them.
It felt wrong for about thirty seconds, and then I couldn't stop. 😆 Total win! Full video up on YouTube tomorrow!

I made this art journal spread and I want to know if you can figure out what the focal images are.
Hint: I found them at Goodwill for about three dollars and they are absolutely not art supplies. 😆

I made this video for anyone who's been looking at Pages Unbound and talking themselves out of it.

You don't have to be a "real" artist. You don't have to have experience. You just have to want to make something — and that's enough.

Two days in Lewes, Delaware, July 18–19. Small group, good food, beautiful venue, and a whole weekend of making art with people who just get it.

Only 15 spots — come join us 👇

Hey, folks! Registration is open for my next in-person workshop. We'll be learning some simple watercolor techniques to create these gorgeous florals - it looks intimidating, but I *promise* you'll be amazed at how easy these are and how awesome they turn out! Participants can choose to use the floral elements in their journal or can make two small greeting cards. Wednesday night, 5/27, at 6:30 p.m. in Laurel, DE at Art by Matia! https://www.facebook.com/events/897493596645563?active_tab=about

My studio has turned into a vibrant garden this morning! ❤️🩷🧡 Inspired by the gorgeous color palettes at the Philadelphia flower show earlier this year and a lesson by Tracy Verdugo - I *love* how this turned out.
