Working on new bottles, new possibilities, and enjoying the overall freedom of Mixed Media. So few rules, and so much latitude to explore color, texture, and collage ideas.



I hope to add these to my etsy store soon, but they are not completed yet. I get about three quarters of the way done with my art before I step back and leave it alone. Sometimes even for days...until I know just how the story needs to end, and how the artwork will be complete.

These little treasures will stay on my "thinking shelf" until I know what they are saying...it is up to them to decide!

Art Journal Pages


Fly Me to the Moon!



Just a quickie in my art journal. This is our groups Doodling prompt. I was a little behind because I've had the flu, but I finished it this evening.

You HAVE to have your art journal time because if you don't, then you can't stretch, and grow, and push, and pull! You know what I mean? Art journals are Taffy Pullers! Get your sweetness on, and start doodling too.

Sweet Madness




I've been a little under the weather with a rotten cold, but have finally had the chance to begin doing work again. Between the multitude of projects I have been juggling, there is only one "sweet madness" for me, and that is doing art. Everything else melts away, and in the quiet of my little workspace, I can give myself over to it and let it fly.



This particular altered vintage bottle has that special feeling to it that leads me to know that it has been given it's new life.

Just finished my Mardi Gras Masks for my RAIL class! I really enjoyed this very much. Of course I love working with my favorite paints from theThe Artist Cellar! I just ordered more colors too!



Come join me for this new class! Roses On My Table
