Meet the Altered Pages Designers: Stephanie Siatta

On the very talented Altered Pages Design Team!
 We have many talented artists...
 
Today we are honored to introduce you to
another one of those amazing members of our team
Stephanie Siatta!
 
 She comes to us from Arizona!
 

I am so pleased to be able to use my art talents in a FUN and productive manner at AlteredPages.com. I am a wife, mom to 2 kids (that are growing up far too fast) and an artist. Like so many of us, I have worked at numerous jobs that did not allow my creative side to truly come alive. It certainly is a blessing to be a member of the Altered Pages design team where individual creativity is encouraged. I also own a home based business that specializes in medical transcription and this helps pay the bills and fund the huge stash of art supplies.

I have always loved creating. My first piece (a crayon drawing of our dog, Pudgy) was done when I was three. It still hangs in my mother’s home to this day. I was a member of the National Art Honor Society in High School and a highlight for me was being commissioned to create a one of a kind large scale painting for a new technology wing of the High School in my senior year.

I enjoy mixed media, assemblage, watercolor, acrylics and DIY projects. I love to refinish, repurpose and upcycle. Watercolor is my true love, however. I also enjoy teaching mixed media classes and bringing out the inner artist in people who doubt their creativity. I love the look on a student’s face when they realize they can do it! Anyone can create beauty…the first step is believing that.

Evil Libations!

Here is a kit created by Steph Vintage Topiaries available HERE at Altered Pages!!!
 
 
 
Happy May Day

 Handy Tip for Artists, Recyclers and Neat Freaks! I have a follow-up to the Citra-Sol method for creating fabulous background pages and collages.   I bought a big bag of navel oranges and realized I had the ingredients to make my own solvent!   Simply take a clean glass jar, peel the rind from the oranges and place all the rind/peels, without the pulp (tangerines, oranges, navels) into the jar.   Pour enough vinegar over the peels to cover them.    Allow the jar to sit for a week or two and VOILA!     You have made your own solvent for literally pennies.    You will notice the liquid getting a bit thicker than the plain vinegar and it does not smell bad!!! I now have a  HUGE jar on the window sill!       Be careful and only use this after testing on a safe spot.
