<span style="color: #0000ee; text-align: center; text-decoration: underline;">n*Studio CJS2018 - Let's Jump!</span></h4>
A few years ago, I had lost some of my creative mojo. But then I participated in Nathalie Kalbach's Creative Jumpstart event, and got my mojo back in a big way! <br />
<br />
I am thrilled to announce that this year, I'll be participating as one of the teaching artists in Creative Jump Start (CJS) 2018. This is its 7th year - and once again, it's run by the inimitable Nathalie Kalbach!<br />
<br />

<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">I hope you'll participate in this one-of-a-kind event starting January 2018 to kick your creativity into high gear! (Here's just some of the work I created in CJS 2016!) </span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Throughout January participants get access to 31 downloadable videos from 31 featured artists. I'm proud to be one of those artists, called “JumpStarters.” </span></div>
<br />
You'll learn techniques, discover new materials, connect with other artists and crafters and -- special for 2018 -- learn recipes not just for mixed media but also for your kitchen. <br />
<i><span style="color: #351c75;"><br /></span></i>
<i><span style="color: #351c75;">All of the teaching artists are sharing their favorite recipes - both in and outside the studio!!</span></i><br />
<br />

Just creating a Hanukkah stencil and making art with it feels like a political act, when we have a President who is talking about <a href="http://www.cnn.com/2017/10/13/politics/trump-values-voters-summit/index.html" target="_blank">requiring everyone to say Merry Christmas</a>. (Not that I mind saying that! or feel offended when people say it to me! Plus I love all the lights and the decorations and Santa.)<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEioXb3Z2ONzv95Yqf2VELppAacHSLQfWY7RQimoJqn52OUQzI_SHmFy4owXQ1Y1QiWKvlHgsQ7sleExg6701p1pj-Y-XtzMnVtQ_ZCB5hd6rtGWR636nldiRRn5DjXzNdYCczMtGonNiDxX/s1600/IMG_2400.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="1600" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEioXb3Z2ONzv95Yqf2VELppAacHSLQfWY7RQimoJqn52OUQzI_SHmFy4owXQ1Y1QiWKvlHgsQ7sleExg6701p1pj-Y-XtzMnVtQ_ZCB5hd6rtGWR636nldiRRn5DjXzNdYCczMtGonNiDxX/s400/IMG_2400.jpg" width="400" /></a><br />
But what really got me going was being tapped by <a href="http://www.linmanuel.com/" target="_blank">Lin-Manuel Miranda</a>'s licensing company to design the artwork<a href="https://www.teerico.com/collections/puerto-rico-relief-collection" target="_blank"> for merchandise to raise money for Puerto Rico.</a> <a href="http://www.cnn.com/2017/10/20/us/puerto-rico-one-month-santiago/index.html" target="_blank">The island is in dire condition </a>and needs our help.</div>

For this reason, I, and other artists, are coming together <a href="https://www.32auctions.com/organizations/14232/auctions/43790?t=all" target="_blank">to auction art </a>to raise money for the <a href="https://hispanicfederation.org/unidos/" target="_blank">Hispanic Federation</a>, which is on the forefront of raising money for relief and rebuilding. The auction starts on 10-30 - and I hope you will all participate! New items are being added every day, and by 10-30, it will be super exciting. I hope we will raise lots of funds for a great cause. </div>

Hi there sweeties...
it's Marit here with another fun tutorial for you! It's my last blogpost as a
member of the Design Team, but I get to that at the end of this post. First I
am going to show you how you can use even your big stencils on a tiny little
piece of paper, like an ATC. (<i>Artist Trading Cards [ATCs] is a conceptual
art project initiated by the Swiss artist M. Vänçi Stirnemann in 1997. Artist
Trading Cards are 2.5 by 3.5 inches in size. They are self-made unique works or
small series, signed and dated on the reverse by the artist/producer, exchanged
and collected by the people who participate in collaborative performances ~
Wikipedia)</i><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
This tutorial will be
a little bit different than usual 'cause I will also show you my tests and my
failures. I know some of you out there would love to start art journaling or
painting or 'something' creative, but get discouraged seeing all the 'good
stuff' made by well known artists. Well, let me tell you something: these
artists make mistakes too, they just don't show their attempt and failures on
their websites. I usually don't show those either... my blog posts would get
rather long and it's always nicer to show the finished results. But hey, I do
spend a lot of time on testing and trying without (satisfying) results. And I
also get frustrated sometimes when it comes to creating art. I try and fail.
And once in a while I try and succeed.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
So today I'm going to
show you my process of creating ATCs, including the tests and attempts that I
put aside as 'not to my satisfaction'. Ready?<o:p></o:p></div>

First, I take out some
gelli-printed background papers that I have in stock. When I gelli-print, I
always make some background papers to use later. These are rather simple
prints, just some different colored paint rolled onto the gelli-plate and
printed on thick watercolor paper.<o:p></o:p></div>

Now, I don't know
exactly how to go on... shall I paint the images? What would it look like if I ink them? I try several different techniques to see what each looks like so I can pick the ones I like best.</div>

On one page, I paint
the stenciled images with yellow acrylic paint. I kinda like it, but the yellow
against the background doesn't show much contrast. </div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
On another image I add
distress ink with a Q-tip. Hmmm... too fuzzy looking. Antiquing creme then... I
put it on the stenciled image and take it off again right away... it looks
awful! </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I then grab my golden acrylic paint... I love how it bubbles when you
dry the paint with a heat tool - I used that technique quite a lot in the past
and I use it now on the stenciled image. <b>Wowzah</b>, <i>that's it!</i></div>

ATCs are always signed
and dated on the back. You can of course use a marker and write the info or
type, print and cut out strips with your info that you glue on the back. I
myself bought an 'ATC stamp' years ago and use it ever since. There are all
kinds of ATC stamps for sale and if you make ATCs often, it might be worth
buying (or making) one. I just love the different ways I can use it. In this

And with this tutorial
my term as a member of the Jessica Sporn Design Team comes to an end. When I
applied for the DT - in April 2016 - it
was with ulterior motives. Not only did I admire Jessica's art and did it seem
awesome to be able to work with her designed stencils and stamps, I also could
do with a bit of consistency... with illness in the family and looking at
surgical procedures coming up (my mum, my beloved) I faced an insecure year and
had no idea what the months ahead would bring. I thought it would help me 'come
through' when I would be a member of Jessica's Design Team so that I could keep
on making art on a regular base without laying too much pressure on myself. I
am ever so grateful that Jessica accepted my submission and brought me into her
Design Team. Thank you so much dear, it was exactly what I needed! Now, a year
later, everyone is healthy and happy again and it's time for me to move on and
dive deeper into my own art again. It was a pleasure to create these tutorials
for you! <b><o:p></o:p></b></div>

Marit inherited a passion for words from her mother, who is a writer. Her father taught her to not only “look “ but also “see.” That combination led Marit to become an art teacher and her art always showed images and words. After art school, she worked as a graphic designer. Years later, she re-discovered the combination of words and images in art journaling and her art took flight. Marit's art has been published in various magazines and art books. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Happy Thursday! I hope this finds you well! </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I can hardly believe it, but today marks my last post for this year’s Jessica Sporn Designs </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Creative Team. I made 15 videos over the course of the year, happily playing with Jessica’s </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">beautiful collection of stencils from Stencil Girl and stamps from RubberMoon. Her work is </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">unique, elegant, thought-provoking and above all else, filled with love. It was an honor to </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">represent her and her products, this year and always.</span><br />

I love going through some of my older posts; they always inspire me... This post was originally posted on August 5 of 2015. I hope you'll enjoy a look back at these beautiful, vibrant paintings!<br />
<br />
<br />
I've been teaching an amazing group of women this summer. One of them, Lesley, took one of my classes at<a href="http://jessicasporn.blogspot.com/2013/05/i-love-to-teach.html"> The Ink Pad.</a> She contacted me in May, asking if I would come to Long Branch once a week and teach a group in her home. I'm so glad I said yes! It's been a great adventure, and I learned so much as I planned a new lesson for each of the six weeks.<br />
<br />
Our last lesson was on Tuesday, and it seemed fitting to have a<a href="http://www.gelliarts.com/"> Gelli Plate Party</a>! None of these women had ever used the gelli plate before, and their excitement and joy was thrilling. The paint and prints were flying! All my<a href="http://www.stencilgirlproducts.com/category-s/1827.htm"> Stencil Girl stencils </a>were in the mix, plus a big favorite -- <a href="http://stegart.blogspot.com/">Terri Stegmiller's </a>recent design for <a href="http://www.stencilgirlproducts.com/stencil-club-s/1850.htm">Stencil Club</a>.<br />

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 18.0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Hi all, it's Lizzy with you today with a fun project to try.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 18.0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 18.0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I wanted to create a quilt with my own patterned
paper, so I stenciled over previously painted papers and cut 1.5 and 2 inch
squares to start making the design. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 18.0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 18.0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">To make it easier for me, I traced a diagonal on the cardstock</span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> and then I glued one square on each side of that line and from there,
I started gluing one on each side of those until I completed the page. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">My plan was to make a card with the small panel and
leave the big one for other projects cutting it into stripes, circles or squares
or leave it as it is to use it as a base for a journal page or a collage.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="text-align: left;">Two years ago, when I signed up for <a href="https://arttothe5th.squarespace.com/workshop-selections?p">the Documented Life Project,</a> I received two Chipboard notebooks. I never used them in connection with all the wonderful tutorials, and they've been sitting on my shelf of "things to repurpose!"</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="text-align: left;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Recently, on Stencil Girl Talk, I came across two wonderful tutorials by <a href="http://www.stencilgirltalk.com/2017/06/gwens-gems-stenciled-textured-book-cover.html">Gwen LeFleur </a>and <a href="http://www.stencilgirltalk.com/2017/06/underwater-stencil-layering-with-debi.html">Debi Adams</a>. I incorporated bits of both of them to jazz up this book.</div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
You can also watch <a href="https://youtu.be/_UdPLANPXow">Fallen Leaves Chipboard Cover on YouTube here. </a> In addition to my new Fallen Leaves stencil, I used the <a href="http://www.stencilgirlproducts.com/stencil-women-heal-world-jessica-sporn-p/l526.htm">Women Heal the World</a>, <a href="http://www.stencilgirlproducts.com/product-p/l091.htm">Dots and Dashes</a> and the <a href="http://www.stencilgirlproducts.com/stencil-club-january-2014-s/1985.htm">9 x 12 Stencil from the January 2014 Stencil Club Kit</a>. I found that heavy body acrylic paints worked best for this project, and was also happy to have an excuse to use some of my acrylic markers.</div>

I thought I'd flash back to some of my favorites of each of their posts. Each post has a video or step out tutorial, and the caption under each photo takes you straight to that artist's blog.

Hey there!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
I hope this finds you happy and well. I had so much fun playing with layers this time around for the Jessica Sporn Creative Team, that my fingers are still stained with ink and sticky with glitter as I write this.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Like many of us, I <i>love, love, love</i> adding layer upon layer to my art journaling pages or canvas pieces. The barely visible bits and pieces here and there create mystery and not only draws me in, but hopefully those who come behind me as well.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>

One of my <i>favorite </i>ways to add sheer layers is with decorative tissue and deli papers. I discovered deli paper through an artist friend of mine who not only inspired me to try it, but also sent me some of her stash so I could! Deli paper is just that - paper used to wrap deli sandwiches. It has a lovely sheen, is matte on one side, and takes wet media like a star. Likewise, tissue paper (I know I’m not the only one who hoards it at birthday parties ;) comes in so many colors, and is so see through, that it too can be so fun to play with.</div>

When I created this Dog Stencil and Mask for Stencil Girl Products, I knew I had to make something for my little puppy, Nimby. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
She spends all day with me in her studio, so I thought she deserved a mixed media dog treat container. She only weighs 5 pounds, so her dog treats are very tiny. I decided to repurpose a coffee bean container to hold her tiny biscuits!</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I used:</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
An old coffee container</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
White Gesso</div>

<a href="http://www.viva-decor.net/viva-decor-2014/index.php/en/mdw-en/structural-effect-colors/modeling-cream.html">Viva Decor black modeling creme</a></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Yellow acrylic paint</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Matte Medium</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
White Tissue paper</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
Old Atlas Paper</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
It was quick and easy to do! The drying time for the tissue paper is what took the longest :)</div>
</div>

When I received Jessica’s Born to Be Wild Animals stencil it reminded me of my daughter, not that she’s a wild child! That and she loves animals and has an incredible spirit. For this Design Team contribution I decided to make a canvas for my daughter Erin. Using three of Jessica Sporn’s stencils I created a bright, positive piece of artwork for Erin. I started off painting my canvas in bright colors, then I used a texture plate to add interest. <br />
<br />

<br />
Next I used a reductive stenciling technique that gives a subtle and interesting look to the image. A little detailing with Stabillo pencils and water, and done. <br />

Of course, you can also use each stencil on its own, like this:</div>

In addition to the <a href="http://www.stencilgirlproducts.com/stencil-love-for-everyone-script-jessica-sporn-p/s486.htm">Love is Everything stencil</a>, I used my Build a Cosmos stamps from <a href="https://rubbermoon.com/collections/jessica-sporn/products/build-a-cosmos-complete-set-11-art-stamps-bac1-rubber-art-stamps">Rubbermoon.

<br />
Summer is in full swing in The Netherlands and since I live near the North Sea, I thought it would be nice to make a tote bag to take my things (towel, drinks, book) with me to the beach.***<br />
<br />
I had some left over pieces of fabric laying around so I sewed my own tote bag but if you are not a seamstress you can easily find/buy a plain, off-white tote to decorate and make your own.<br />
This won't be a 'how to sew a bag' tutorial but if you are handy with a sewing machine and like to sew a tote bag yourself, here's the sizes of my tote.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<br />
I cut two pieces of canvas for the front and bag and strips of left over white fabric (I don't know exactly what kind of textile it is, it looks like curtain fabric and has a bit of texture in it.)<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhHANTZdUGaWD99br5um9-YNU3eD_UjAQGoA_gZxrrNeapJyMT24wh7vc2ykjZUMMxWJn76g-vN1P3nvcx5Hjo-nuxoDhCzC1J_TANkQ5F6IjUXT3aq5e_M5AWM17r2CWU1zbyY-sep/s1600/2017-06-15-tutorial02.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="500" data-original-width="667" height="239" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhHANTZdUGaWD99br5um9-YNU3eD_UjAQGoA_gZxrrNeapJyMT24wh7vc2ykjZUMMxWJn76g-vN1P3nvcx5Hjo-nuxoDhCzC1J_TANkQ5F6IjUXT3aq5e_M5AWM17r2CWU1zbyY-sep/s320/2017-06-15-tutorial02.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
I put the strips aside and start to decorate the back and front of my tote. If you work on an existing tote back, be sure to put a piece of plastic in the tote before decorating it to prevent the other side from bleeding spots. I want the decoration to be fun and whimsical so I use 5 different stencils.<br />
<br />

<br />
I have one bottle of pink fabric spray paint that I use to spray over the Dots & Dashes stencil. I then take my acrylic paints and use brushes, a brayer and my hands to smear, stencil, plug, rub and paint.<br />
<br />

<br />
I choose bright colors and keep on adding paint...<br />

<br />
Once the background is to my liking, it's time to get out the stencils that have more of a figurative design: Judy's Trees, Fallen Leaves and Love is for Everyone Script. I also stamp some circles with a toilet roll, just because I love circles.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<br />
I find the look still a bit boring, so I take out my favorite stencil Circles & Squares and add some extra white. I outline the images with a black Poster-paint Sharpie for more contrast 'et voila!'<br />

On to the strip then... I cut a few strips earlier and I now sew those together to get one, really long strip that will fit around the bag. To match the design on the front and back I decide to use the Dots & Dashes stencil again with black paint.<br />
<br />

<br />
My plan was, to make an astringent black and white print and add a lot of black but once I start to apply the paint through the stencil (I use a brayer for that) I notice that the texture in the fabric adds for extra interest - those are the happy accidents that make creating fun - so I go easy with the black paint. <br />
<br />

<br />
Once the fabric is dry, I sew the parts together. I have a bit of 'strip' fabric left over that I sew at the top of the tote. I also use some of the black & white fabric to create the handles.<br />
<br />
And now that we come to the end of the tutorial, you want to see the finished tote bag don't you? And maybe you also wondered what the *** (asterisks) meant at the beginning of this post... well, when my tote was done I showed it to my beloved and he just LOVES it!!! In our household he is the one that walks to the store to do the grocery shopping for our dinner almost daily and this tote would be perfect for that. So my beach tote gets another use... as of now you can see my beloved walking around with this tote.<br />

Is it just me or can you never find a little card or note in the house when you really need one? I'm not even talking about a birthday card, just a plain little one that you want to send just because?<br />
<br />
Well that's where the idea for this little project came from. I used kraft cardstock and a matching envelope to create this notecard that can be used for any occasion that might come up!<br />

I worked with the <a href="http://www.stencilgirlproducts.com/product-p/l091.htm" target="_blank">dots and dashes stencil from stencilgirl </a>and the <a href="https://rubbermoon.com/products/renew-js5243c-rubber-art-stamp" target="_blank">renew rubber stamp from rubbermoon</a> both designed by Jessica. I kept it very simple so these could easily be made several times in a set. Perfect to keep on hand or even to give away.<br />

I am thrilled to be part of <a href="http://www.stencilgirlproducts.com/stencils-jessica-sporn-s/1827.htm">Stencil Girl Products</a> celebration of "Mermaid Madness!" </div>

Did you ever play mermaid when you were a kid? I did. My hair was really long, and I used to try to swim with my legs together like a long tail, while swishing my hair around in the water. I'm not sure why mermaids have such an allure, but they do!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Here is a box I made with the stencil I designed, called Mermaids and Masks, to memorialize that playful time in my life. </div>

You can also watch <a href="https://youtu.be/oZeunGJ-w8c">Making a Mermaid Journal on YouTube here. </a> You'll see that I also used the <a href="http://www.stencilgirlproducts.com/stencil-women-heal-world-jessica-sporn-p/l526.htm">"Women Will Heal the World" stencil </a>in this video. You still have a few days to be eligible to win that stencil by commenting on the <a href="http://jessicasporn.blogspot.com/2017/06/summer-blog-hop-with-creative-team.html">June Blog Hop post, here.</a> <br />
<br />
I can't wait to see what the other artists, who also designed Mermaid themed stencils, have created! It's all on the<a href="http://www.stencilgirltalk.com/2017/06/stencil-splash-alert-mermaid-madness.html"> Stencil Girl Blog!</a><br />
<br />
Just keep swimming!<br />

Hi Creative friends! Sherry Canino here for the Jessica Sporn Designs Creative Team. For those who know me you know I just <i>love </i>to create tags. Tags are a fun way to make a “mini” art piece especially when you don’t have lots of time. Plus, creating tags gives me an opportunity to have something to “giveaway” (<i>one lucky commenter will win these 3 tags details at the end of the post</i>). <br />
<br />

<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I designed them so that you could mix and match the words to make different phrases, besides the obvious, such as:</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
everything is Divine</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I am Divine</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I see the Divine</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Love is Divine</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Love is meant to lift us up</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
lift up out of the darkness</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
see Love in the darkness</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I am in Love </div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Love is everything</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
lift up the Divine in everything</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Love everyone and everything</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
lift everyone up in Love</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
You get the idea! I am sure there are many more!</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Of course, you can also use each stencil on its own, like this:</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You can also watch<a href="https://youtu.be/rNGvGmfNkus" target="_blank"> "Divine in everything" on YouTube here. </a></div>
<br />
I hope my videos and tutorials spark your creativity. If you use any of my stencils or stamps, or are inspired by techniques I share, please let me know so I can feature you!<br />

Geographic magazines and Citrasolv where I learned this technique but,
I've never seen how it works with stencils so I had to try. I hope you
get inspired to do it, you can get beautiful and unexpected results.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

The older one is living in Prague, and writing for several blogs. (Check out her "<a href="http://www.pinkpangea.com/2016/04/48-hours-prague/" target="_blank">48 Hours in Prague</a>" guide!) She loves to travel, and often writes about her experiences - the good AND the bad. Sometimes her posts give me pause as her mom - but she always ends up OK. Check out her post for Pink Pangea: <a href="http://www.pinkpangea.com/2016/07/guide-traveling-safely-in-colombia/" target="_blank">A Guide to Traveling Safely in Columbia</a>. I'm so glad I only learned about those adventures after the fact! <br />

My younger daughter, Samy, lives to be onstage. She's been performing for as long as she could walk and talk - and just blossoms under the lights. Here she is at 9!<br />

Now, she is a sophomore in High School, but would much rather have an agent and be running around NYC to auditions. While she's waiting for that to happen, she is performing in her High School shows, and was recently chosen to be part of a program run by Vanguard Theater Company called the <a href="http://vanguardtheater.org/" target="_blank">Broadway Buddy Mentorship Cabaret. </a> She, and 24 other teens and young adults, were selected out of an audition pool to work with Broadway actors for a few months, and then perform with their mentors in a cabaret. Here are some glimpses from the cabaret - where you will see a bit of her performance. </div>
