Tabatha just sent me this link to her website- she does wonderful work with the most unexpected objects, and it's always a joy to see what she's got going :)
You should definitely check out her website, and look forward to seeing her at the Spring Whimsical Women Show- should we start some kind of official countdown to the show date here on the blog?

Kellie Hill, One Painting a Day

One of our painting Whimiscal Women, Kellie Hill has started a painting-a-day blog at http://kelliehill.blogspot.com/ , and a studio blog at http://kellie-hill.blogspot.com/ . Feel free to drop in and see what she's been up to!

What about you other Whimiscals? Any links to blogs, websites, or online galleries?

Shannon Whitworth, on tour!

Shannon Whitworth does lovely pottery as a Whimsical Woman, but she also sings and plays the banjo, and is currently on tour! If you're in the area for any of her appearances you should definitely attend :) Hurry, though- that first show is tonight, and any of them would be a fun thing to do for Valentines Day.

Yay!

Luli Sanderford just sent me an email saying that, after a meeting of the executive committee of *Whimsicalness*, this blog is officially launched- I should be getting emails from members shortly, with images and links and all manner of exciting things!
