Some October Art...

Some more pages I created for a small House Book Swap I am part of. The theme here was "correspondence" and I had fun trying to use just about every mail art stamp I own. Felt really good to use my stamps again as sometimes I think I depend on Collage Images way too much. The top photo shows the piece with all the tags out of the little pocket, and the one below you can see I have put all the tags away in the pocket.
This is another page I created for the House Book swap. This one from an earlier month and the theme was "seaside".

Some ATC's...

I have finally started sorting out some older photos and looking for some art to share. Today I thought I would upload a few ATC's. Have not worked on ATC's for awhile and must admit I had forgotten how much I love them.

September 2009

 

Well life is plodding along as usual for me, not a lot of time for art, but finally a moment to share another recent piece i have made. This was made for a swap on a Yahoo Group I am part of. The pendant was made of Polymer Clay - my wire work still needs practice - so hard to find the time for all the different types of art I enjoy!!

Sunday 23rd August

Can't believe i am actually posting something and it's still August.... life has been a bit crazy with my family lately, no light at the end of the tunnel yet, but thought i should post something so my few readers will know i am still in the land of the living.

This piece of art i created for a small private swap I am a part of. We are using a house shape and this piece i created for the theme "Italian Inflence". I have called my page "learning italian" as i have used paper from a book called "A Progressive Italian Grammar". I will try to upload a few more pages from the swap.

June art posted in July... :O)

I created this artwork for Marlene for her 50th Birthday.... I have been doing online classes with Julie and this is very heavily influenced by her style which I love. The classes are fantastic and would strongly recommend them to anyone who love to play with paint!

A nice early May post...

This is the tag I made for Paper Princess Margaret for her birthday. Her wish for Art this year was for us to decorate a tag and a metal bird in colours of soft pink and green. Don't you just love the natural green of the twig i used? It looks like i painted it to match, but that is it - straight from the garden!!
Here is a photo as promised of the artwork on my wall. I cannot tell you the pleasure it brings me to walk past this several times a day (when i am home of course). A huge thank you to the Paper Princesses (there is a picture of us on Celeste's Blog if you would like a peek).

Thought I better get an April post in!

Well as you can see I am still slightly 'bird' obsessed... yet another piece of artwork featuring a birdie! This piece is actually for my very own wall - i have a gorgeous collection of nature themed canvasses on my wall (created for me by the Paper Princesses) and I decided to add to it with some of my own art. I must take a photo of the complete collection to share with you.
