i made these last year...i love making them for Christmas gifts and they make perfect saleable items as well...each are about 3" X 7"...
a few wks ago, a niece of mine had an artist gathering at her new apt.
everyone brought whatever they wanted to make...
it was such FUN being in the company of like minded souls and all of the SHARING...
i cut up some heavy watercolor paper and put layers on each of them, while listening, gabbing and sharing stories...
it was such an easy way to get them done and FUN!
these are little bags painted and sewn with hangers...
they look great just hanging on the wall with nothing in them or with a dried grapevine or dried flowers in them :)
this is the flip side of the first pocket photo
First side
Flip side
they are in between
3" X 5" - 5" X 7"
last but not least...this is a little peek at a new mixed media painting
i tried to stick to 2 colors, but HAD to introduce a teeny bit of blue...
who knows how this will end up as it gets many more layers!
there is crackle medium, modeling past, cardboard and various other applications...i have to be patient and let it dry in between it's UN-purposes :))
i hope you've had a wonderful weekend...it's not over yet here on the west coast!
HAPPY SUNDAY ALL!
these are darling, wanda!

Sounds like a FUN gathering with your niece, and very productive--the bags are so cute. It was a nice weekend 70˚ here today :-)
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see the new piece. Love the texture and crackle and colors and well....all I can see so far.
ReplyDeleteColor color color! Wheeeeee!
ReplyDeleteAll wonderful! You are always very gracious with your energy Wanda - you give it freely - spilling it on canvas, paper, fabric and people! :-)
These are so sweet and GREAT ideas. A wonderful project. I made hanging cards to put on doorknobs as decorations, and it was so much fun. Must do it again!
ReplyDeleteLots of lovely colorful stuff.
