Response to Gary Reef's Christmas Question

What did you get for Christmas? I'd love to know :-). Here's the information:

The electric cutting tool is called the *MicroLux Nibbler from Micro-Mark.

*Wreck This Journal by Keri Smith.
*Mixed-Media Collage by Holly Harrison.
*Collage, Assemblage, and Altered Art by Diane Maurer-Mathison.
*Art Making, Collections & Obsessions by Lynne Perrella.
*Exhibition36, Mixed-Media Demonstrations + Explorations by Susan Tuttle.
*Taking Flight by Kelly Rae Roberts.
*Artists' Cafe, a publication of Stampington & Co.
*YouTube for Dummies by Doug Sahlin and Chris Botello.

I use a Flip Video Camera to record my videos. It's about the size of a large cell phone and super easy to use...you can record up to an hour. Keep extra batteries with you at all times!

Wow i am loving all of those books! One of my new years resolutions is to read more books ;) Thanks for sharing Donna X

I am really itching to read all of them but there just doesn't ever seem to be enough time. Maybe after the holidays are over. Gotta get educated for the Rauschenberg Challenge! And I want to experiment with aluminum roof flashing and even leather..they didn't mention leather in the description but it seems that it should work...using that electric cutting tool. Oh, the possibilities!

WOW! Santa Claus was really good to you! The picture quality of the flip phone is gorgeous! What is that beeping sound? Is that coming from the camera? I love all your new toys! Can I come over and play? hahahaha

[artsycalgal]

You know, I haven't even listened to it yet because it was taking so long to appear on YouTube and it was 3:00am (past my bedtime)..the battery was low and it stopped working right after I finished recording so that might be it. I guess I practiced way too much so I guess I'll put in fresh batteries before each video from now on! ha ha ha It would definitely be fun to play!!!!!

Donna, You must have been a very good girl this year. Santa brought you bunches of goodies. :-)

So glad I found your channel! I love that you shared your books with us-I am going right now to put them all on my Amazon Wish List. I already have a long list going, but what's a few more?! LOL! :)

Great art books, I'm going to write those all down and try to find them at the book store,thanks for including the authors's names.

[artsycalgal]

:-) Funny how we do seem to like the same types of things. Thanks, by the way, for turning me onto Taking Flight. I will check out the other book by Keri Smith. So many books...so little time!

[artsycalgal]

The Flip Video Camera is great and very small so it easy to carry everywhere. Shop around for prices...I saw it on sale for $119...sorry, can't remember where...and as high as $159. I'm still trying to learn about getting the video from the Flip software to YouTube...YouTube for Dummies should come in real handy!! LOL ! I am so jealous that you will experience such an historic event first hand and can't wait for the videos.

I am going to see if the library has any of those books. I too want to know about the flip phone, since I might buy one for d.c. Thanks for sharing Donna.
