Health Update

Hello everyone,

Another quick update…

Posted by stoppenlook@gma... on Sat, 10/19/2024 - 12:00am

Sorry to say that I am still struggling with my health...but I am not willing to give up. I pray there will be more "better days" soon and I can get back to what I love. The want/need is there...I just need my endurance!
Meanwhile, I have been spending some time in the Garden, caring for our sweet elder bunny and working on my genealogy.

I pray all is well with everyone

A long overdue update

Hello everyone,

As I sit here watching the snow gently fall, I thought it might be a good time to update everyone.

Upon Reflection

Posted by stoppenlook@gma... on Mon, 12/03/2018 - 1:00am in blog, Stoppenlook.ca, StoppenLook.com

I am happy to say that I am back in my Studio again! In truth, I needed a break...a step back and reflect break from having struggled so hard trying to create a living where I felt my heart was always pinned to my sleeve. I will always create - I've never stopped - I just directed it into making things for our home - designing gardens around the house, etc. This consumed my time along with having started a full-time job in an unfamiliar field. All the while, StoppenLook sat gloomily upstairs in my Studio heaving a big sigh every time I came within earshot.

Another new product for my booth at Market on the Plaza :)

I just finished painting one of the shingles that I will have for sale at my booth. It's mixed media - water-based oils, acrylics and wood-burning!

OPEN HOUSE for 'Whimsical Transformations'

Posted by stoppenlook@gma... on Tue, 04/19/2016 - 12:00am in Class, L.E.A.P. (Learning Elders Arts Program), Whimsical Transformations

Well! We had a lovely, lovely open house on April the 11th for 'Whimsical Transformations' - an art program I developed and taught as part of the LEAP (Learning Elders Arts Program). We had a two hour class every Thursday over the previous eight weeks.

This is part of the description that I wrote for the main display board:

"The colouring books were flying offthe shelves at work...and I do mean flying!

So much so, it made me stop and wonder why? What was all the fuss about?
