I am not happy about it (actually I’m really pi&&ed), but the public seems to have spoken again about my art. It is a huge waste of time and money, and a real self esteem killer, to work so hard to create something unique and have NO ONE vote for it. So, I’m done. I [...]
Amid the hectic schedules of my children, I’ve managed to squeeze in a tiny bit of art time. I made this ATC for a “Royalty†swap:
She’s the Princess of Books and she’s inspired by my daughter. My daughter, who’d rather be Ruler of All Things, is an avid reader and has been since she was [...]
That’s right, I’ve become addicted to my little glass boxes. They are great fun to make and once the artwork for the bottom is done, they do go together relatively fast. That is, until I solder the lid shut and have to start the entire lid over. But that’s another issue. How do you like [...]
Remember the sneak peak I gave you a while back? Well, today, I can show you the whole thing:
The box is on display in the ArtChix Yahoo group, and you have to join the group if you’d like to see the entire show. ArtChix Studio sells collage images and ephemera for mixed media art. The [...]
This is my entry to for a copper themed challenge in my Yahoo group. When I found out that the theme was copper, I immediately thought, “Hair!†Very strange, unless you know that my children are red heads. My daughter’s hair is copper colored and my son’s is a bit more orange. Having been born [...]
When I was younger, it seemed to be an easy thing to do-never grow up. I thought, for sure, that I would never be a grown up, never get to be the one who makes the rules, never have my own house, never get to do all the fun things that grown ups do.
Now I [...]
“She†is Shelly, our new (leased) horse. My daughter has been riding for about a year now and has wanted to be a vet every since she could speak. So, when a friend of mine asked me if I wanted to lease one of her horses, I had to say, “Yes!â€. Shelly is a 15 [...]
I managed to squeeze in a little art today. Here is my entry for the “Fantasy†challenge:
Can you tell it’s still freezing here? I’m fantasizing about warm beach weather!
And here is a little tease:
It’s a sneak peak at a project that I am making for ArtChix Studio’s “Nature’s Beauty†Online Art Show. There will be [...]
It gives me extra pleasure to post these pieces, since I allows me to bug my sister. I get to rub in the fact that I made 3 pieces of art while she was having to file all of her art related paperwork. Ha Ha Stacy! (Note: I really love my sister A LOT and [...]
Just a quick entry to show you the two pieces I was able to get finished this morning:
La Vie en Paris 4×4 for a swap in my Yahoo group.
Love and Scandal ATC for a personal swap. I love this stamp! The full text is “Love and scandal are the best sweeteners of tea.†Oh the [...]
