A Stroke of Joy: F: Fall
http://alyssajoyart.blogspot.com/2012/09/f-fall.html
Sunday, September 30, 2012. What's not to love about the fall (Okay, fine. The pending frigid weather to come and the cold, rainy days are not all that much to get excited about)? Comfy pants and long sleeves come out, delicious and festive foods are made, the leaves change their color, and all those pesky summer bugs take a hike. It's a great time for taking walks, for drinking tea, and for getting excited about the plethora of festive holidays coming. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Illustrator....

A Stroke of Joy: March 2011
http://alyssajoyart.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
Tuesday, March 29, 2011. Still here. busyness away! March is coming to an end. And what do I have to show for the past couple of months? I had promised myself that I would aim to meet the goals I set in place before the "new year" began. Let's look at them again and analyze what's been going on. 2 Make time to draw and paint every week. 3 Spend time with God everyday. 4 Read more. About anything that matters to me: ministry, art, food, marriage, etc. 5 Learn more about organic food and healthy cooking.

A Stroke of Joy: June 2011
http://alyssajoyart.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
Wednesday, June 22, 2011. It's been a long time. Since I've seen your smiling face." - Cake. O art, how I miss thee! I've been doing a lot of wedding-related design these days, but have been so desiring to make my own art again soon. The first piece is a little project I did up for a woman from church. I actually took out some paint and washed a new color over the mat board I used. It felt SO GOOD to paint again, even if just for a quick wash of color. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

A Stroke of Joy: December 2011
http://alyssajoyart.blogspot.com/2011_12_01_archive.html
Saturday, December 31, 2011. 1 Put less on my plate so that I can enjoy life once in a while, not just stress myself through it. 2 Try to make homemade paper (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle). 3 Finish my still life (I started it in September. it's seriously gathering dust now). 4 Look into the professional benefits of having a Twitter account (I have been avoiding the idea all together, but am questioning lately if it would be a useful networking tool). 5 Start exploring more useful, homemade craft ideas.

A Stroke of Joy: August 2010
http://alyssajoyart.blogspot.com/2010_08_01_archive.html
Tuesday, August 31, 2010. So I'm trying to decide if I should even finish this one, or whether I should wait to get new black and white and just start the whole color wheel over. I think I need new tape, too. Sigh. I hate that I was just at the art store yesterday and now need to make another trip over there. Friday, August 13, 2010. For the Love of the Lesson. My demo pieces for the kids. The kids are still working on the big shape project we started several weeks ago, but they're almost done! Next on t...

Friday, June 25, 2010. Today's post is dedicated to all those suffering in the bondage of slavery. I'm working out an idea for a piece on sex trafficking. I long for the day when every person on this earth is freed from physical, mental, and spiritual affliction. Until then, I want to fight for the freedom of others through art and prayer. Thursday, June 24, 2010. This drawing (below) is a copy after Henri Matisse's The Dinner Table (Harmony in Red). Tuesday, June 15, 2010. Sketches from the other day.

A Stroke of Joy: September 2010
http://alyssajoyart.blogspot.com/2010_09_01_archive.html
Thursday, September 30, 2010. I like designing. I wish I could have double-majored in Illustration and. Design. I probably would have died though. It's hard enough having one major at the Hartford Art School. Wednesday, September 22, 2010. So much has been going on this month! While I am not a designer by nature, I am certainly having fun reading up on the art of design and creating things in Photoshop. The process of creating anything, for me, is exciting and fun! Another announcement slide, more current.

A Stroke of Joy: January 2012
http://alyssajoyart.blogspot.com/2012_01_01_archive.html
Tuesday, January 17, 2012. E: Easels, Envelopes, and Empowerment. Anyway, as far as things happening right now in my life go, I'd have to say 2012 has been rather uneventful thus far. However, I have been excited for all the possibilities this year has to offer. So many things going on in the world already, like National Human Trafficking Awareness Month, which I have been announcing in the streets! And by "streets" I mean Facebook. Thursday, January 5, 2012. D: Double Indemnity and Design. The last few ...
