scribbler art

This picture was done using scribbler. If you haven't tried it, give it a try.....it's addicting. Just click here.

clean slate

Here it is. The work table is cleared ( I can't believe it either) I was going to paint the top but instead, I laid a bunch of my college papers on top and covered that with a thick clear plastic sheet. Topped off with a quote from Picasso. It works great.

This is the back of an envelope from today's studio work. It's pink but the lighting was bad when I took the photo. My friend Jan came over today for a "play-date" in the studio. She wanted me to show her how to make greeting cards. She had a good time and made several cards including one for her husband's birthday which is tomorrow. I created my Valentine's.

last night's sky art

It was so beautiful! And so was the day......a balmy 79 degrees. Today? It's very cold and windy with a chance of some snow. No art for yesterday. It was too nice out so I worked on my car (the 56.) And today was bowling day and house cleaning.....but tomorrow holds the promise for some art.

I dyed today

I know, I know, I have a warped sence of humor. My family is always getting on me about it but hey, it's who I am. That is not a big tumor, it's my new pink fabric. It's for my February pink altered book I am planning. I didn't know it would look so gross in the picture. It's really pretty, but I guess you have to be here to appreciate it.

Now this. Sharon and Zorana both made paintings last weekend using their non dominant hands. I peeked in on them both and it was amazing what they did. So of course I said I would also try it. And then I thought - what was I thinking? So I tried a quick sketch on this envelope to see if I even could draw with my left hand. Kind of looks like a Nun gone bad. Anyway, I will give it a shot for laughs and maybe if it all goes haywire.....I will have a Picasso of my own.

New Sunday Post

I really miss reading the Sunday Washington Post. It's a great newspaper and every time I move away from home......I miss it. But anyway I am trying to hook you up with the post from yesterday with the pink artist project. So you don't have to put in that long address you should be able to click here.
Yay! it worked!

It's a fun little project to benefit breast cancer. So I hope you will check it out and join us.
Health update....YAY! I am almost all better and I got out of the house today!!!!
Thanks again for all the get well wishes.

it's Friday!

YAY! It's Friday and I am feeling even better! I slept most of the night and today I loaded the dishwasher without feeling exausted. That is a major accomplishment for this week. I think later on I will shoot for a load of laundry. I never thought I would be happy to wash dishes and laundry. And I think my little babysitter is relieved too. Harley, the studio cat misses the studio. He has not left my side since I have been sick.
Oh, about the cute little skullies above.....I found them at Michael's. They also had purple sparkly crowns. They are made of felt with sparkles and are self sticking. So I had to experiment with them and you can stick them on a base and use it as a stamp. Of course I used the alcohol inks to ink them up.

Have an artful weekend.

Hopefully next week I will be working at full speed....have Valentine's to create.
