A Pen For A Dream

I was asked to paint a pen and wasn't really sure what I should paint, but this is what I came up with.  Aside from painting this pen, this project has nothing to do with me.  I am more than happy to help out and be a very small part of this hopefully huge and exciting project/adventure.  Thank you Brian, for the awesome opportunity!




A Pen for a Dream is an experiment, a chance, a hope. It’s dipping my toe into the world of snowball bartering and seeing how wet it gets. In the spirit of One Red Paperclip, there is the hope of a final goal, but what’s more important is the journey, seeing where this leads, all the crazy places it might go. Adventure is the game, and the prize at the end is still a long way off.  
To read more and follow along, check out Brian and his awesome adventure.  He's doing a few other cool things too!  Have a spectacular day!!

  1. I went to Brian's site to check it out. I remember hearing about the guy who ended up with a house by doing the barter thing.
    It's an interesting project, and I hope he succeeds. Especially since I see he is trying to help the people of Joplin out.

    And I love the way you transformed that pen into something very unique. Magical. You have a way with color.

    Have a great weekend!

  2. That pen looks gorgeous! It's the sort of thing I would keep on my desk and admire, while hiding away my good ol' Rollerball.

  6. Thank you so much, Heather, for both the pen and for helping start this adventure! You are, as always, amazing! (And sorry about the double post. Just had to adjust my profile a bit.)
