Dan's 18th Masquerade Party


Friday 11th was Dan's 18th Birthday Party.
It was themed: "Masquerade"... However, due to safety reasons, we weren't allowed to actually wear masks.
This meant that we all had to get creative with our costumes. I love a creative challenge, and what better challenge than to create a costume for a masquerade party without a mask!?
Leia and Bekah came over to my place to get ready. Here's what we came up with:

And my handsome hubby wore a hat instead of a mask. He looked very dashing ;)
Great Birthday Party. Great Theme. Great Company. A Great way to celebrate the birthday of a great guy!

In the Spirit of Easter

The Devonport Relief Society showed this video on Sunday.
I couldn't help but feel touched as i watched and listened.
In the true spirit of easter i'd like to say: I am truly grateful for the knowledge and testimony i have of my Saviour, brother and friend - Jesus.

Beautiful, isn't it?

Also, today i've been brushing up on my photo editing skills and exploring some photoshop tutorials. I created this pic using lighting effects, collage process and blending options...
...Again, it's easter themed...

A New Project...

... So I bet you're wondering what "a new project" is all about.
WELL...

J.W. Portrait Art is a new blog site I've created as a 'project'.
(It's more like a hobby that'll earn me a little $$)
The idea behind it is, you give me a photo you'd like to have drawn/ painted and I do it for you :) Simple.
YOU, my fellow friends, family, and acquaintances, are all free to browse the site and email me :)

$$ Hey Big Spenders!!

BEHOLD... The newest technology breakthrough for Fans.

The Dyson Air Maximizer.

There are MANY perks to this funky new fan! Some of these are:
1. No Blades. This means there's no "buffeting" in the air that's blown. Instead it blows are smooth, uninterrupted stream of air.
2. It's safe. As modelled below, you can stick your head right up to it, in it/ through it and your head doesn't get chopped off!
3. It's easy to clean. Remeber the days when you had to remove the fan cover, the blades, etc, clean and dust off every part, then put it all back together again. Well, those days are gone now, thanks to Dyson!
4. Dimmer-switch control. Old fans usually only have about 5 settings. The dyson air multiplier has a "dimmer-switch" control for precise adjustment of airflow power.
5.Touch-tilt. This funky fan tilts on it's own centre of gravity. staying put without clamping!

AND... to top it all off. Anthony just walked in with his new iPhone! He's grinning like a kid at christmas!

Expressions of Interest, Please??

Ok, so recently i uploaded just a few of the artworks i've done this year (2009)onto Facebook. A few people have commented that i should SELL SELL SELL!
SO.... I've decided to start up an internet business to sell that artworks i produce.
HOWEVER, before i launch the website i'm considering holding a privately hosted art exhibition of ALL my artwork (from all years) sometime in the summer school holidays coming up. Probably in December sometime.
The idea of the exhibition is so that all you friends and family can get "first dibs" on artworks before they double in price and go on the intternet next year.

IMPORTANT: The show cannot go on unless i get enough "expressions of interest" to hold the exhibition.
It will be a casual affair and there'll most likely be bubbly and nibblies for you as you wander about the exhibition...

If you're interested in attending or would like to see the half-price exhibition go ahead, please leave a comment below, or email me @ jessicawheeler@live.com.au

Here's a sneak peak of some images that'll be available....

Don't forget to the spread the word, the more people the better :D
