Drain Painting from a few years back 🎀💘💙

June 1st is here and did you know? June is National Ocean Month! 🌊

Lafayette isn't a coastal town but we're a lot closer to the ocean than we think thanks to bayous, ditches, storm drains, coulees, and the Vermilion! If you didn't learn it in school you probably heard it in Finding Nemo, 🐠 "All drains lead to the ocean" and that is especially true for storm drains. We should never dump anything into the storm drain, it's only for rainwater.

Remember, what we do on the land directly affects our waterways, even the ocean!

NINE years since my art business became my full time gig. I have a tradition of celebrating this milestone every year with a giveaway. I make a bag or container full of whimsy and then stuff it full of good stuff I like. This year’s bag is special and will be particularly appreciated by all you Artsy Fartsy Crafty Maker Creatives out there!!!

…stay tuned to see how to enter to win later this week (or maybe even today if I can get my act together🙃).
