FRIDAY'S POSSIBILITIES...

"she was all grown up and she still wished to join the

CIRCUS"

 

HAPPY FRIDAY

 

;)

ABSTRACT TUESDAY...

 Here

is where i've been!

Immersed

in paint, dots, stripes, circles and other designs.

 

 

 

 

 Another

LABOR OF LOVE!

 

i start out thinking (or not thinking)

what a different task/delight

a large painting involves.

 

 

 

 i have decided now on this journey...

that i enjoy both small and large works.

it's good to come to this place in my

artwork.

EVERY

PAINTING

teaches me much,

small or LARGE.

and the HIGH it leaves is most rewarding!

BUT

that goes on during the entire stint.

UP and DOWN...

 

The words in the MIDDLISH...

"We are mosaics,

pieces of

LIGHT

LOVE

STARS

Glued together with

MAGIC ~ MUSIC ~ & WORDS"

 

i could not find the person who said this, but it is a quote and it isn't mine ;)

 It's title...

 

"CAN YOU HEAR THE MUSIC?"

 

 

 

 

 SHARING:

one of my favorite markings

are these that look similar to a sewing stitch...

using,

a sewing wheel (old fashioned roller thingy used over carbon paper for patterns)

i like it so much that i want to over use it ;)...but am able to hold back most of the time ;)

 

 

 

 

and

i

have

continued to practice

birds...

many different kinds,

to be continued!

 

 

HAPPY REST OF THE WEEK EVERYONE

XOXO

GROWTH and life's TREASURES...

 I've been patiently

and not so patiently

working off and on.

taking it slow,

not rushing one bit.

 

 

 

 

 on these same 3 large pieces, still.

they change every day!

sometimes to the extreme.

and then I realize over and over

what other artists and teachers mean by

DON'T GET ATTACHED while layering.

I have covered EVERYTHING that I thought I would keep,

and it is all turning out so marvelous,

and SURPRISING.

GROWTH!!!

LESSONS, HUMOR, DEEPNESS.

That's just what it's all about and I am loving it so.

 art is so very

parallel

and

integrated

within our lives,

especially when we like it this way.

ENHANCEMENT

ENRICHMENT

again...

GROWTH ;)

Our nearest nesters this spring.

they are so darling.

this is a pair of finches.

they both sit on the eggs,

they both stand guard.

and this one captured on our outdoor camera...

the male is feeding the female, ahh ;)

 

HAPPY WEEKEND

XOXO

HAPPY SPRING COLORS...

All of these shots

 

 

 

 are just one small portion

 

 

 

of each painting.
running between each, while one or the other were drying ;)

 

 

1 large canvas

1 medium canvas

and

smallest 12" x 12" x 2" wrapped canvas

 

i just ran out of steam after painting and inking

all morning long...

HOPING

to find a second wind!

BUT,

it is GORGEOUS outside and the birds and sunshine are calling me.

MAYBE

i'll be back tomorrow.

APRIL FOOLS DAY...

 i was working on a little collage last night...

and then i closed my eyes and added the black

with a rigger brush.

when i opened my eyes i saw this little critter

taking shape on the left, adding an eye and a

piece of collage paper on it's face.

this morning i woke up and saw the second

loving face and shall add a little pair of ears

tomorrow.

 

 

 

 

SERENDIPITY

ON

APRIL FOOLS DAY!

 

HAPPY WEEKEND ALL!
