Speaking of Collaboration…
In my last blog post, I discussed the importance of collaboration when building a virtual support network or “squad”. Today, I am pleased to announce I have completed my first collaboration with fluid artist Olga Soby. Check out my article as guest blogger on her site Smart Art Materials here: https://smartartmaterials.com/acrylic-pouring-step-by-step-guide-how-to-get-started/. Happy Valentine’s Day!
