Artist Claudine Hellmuth’s blog

It’s always so exciting to watch a fellow artist step out into the "big time" and by "big time" I mean national (especially television) exposure! As an artist, I’m always following other artists that inspire me. Claudine Hellmuth is one of them. I don’t know her personally, but she’s a fellow Florida girl (I lived there for 14 years) and she shares the pages of Creatively Self Employed with me, and she feels like a fellow kindred spirit in the creative world. Claudine creates beautiful, fun, spirited collage and illustration work , and when you read her blog you come to know the heart behind it all. That’s why I LOVE when artists have blogs. It’s such a wonderful glimpse into person and their world behind the art. Anyway, today is a very exciting day for Claudine as she will be demonstrating her art along side Martha Stewart. And it’s an exciting day for everyone else, because for those of you who don’t yet know her, today’s your chance to learn about yet another fabulous artist!!
A big congratulations to Claudine!! You can watch her today on NBC, at 2 pm pacific time.

*Edit* later today ~ Claudine was wonderful, so charming, gracious, happy and she looked fabulous! And not to mentinon that she handled Martha’s questions (about the weight of the metal board? of all things?!) with incredible ease!! She’s a natural.
