art for a little more than arts sake

Someone To Watch Over You

Let It Go

Make Peace


Be Happy


in a rather serious mood today ... what's up with that? it's another gorgeous day here in the northwest and i've spent the morning working in my studio since, oh, say 8 a.m.? I love doing that ... the time there is heavenly, despite my organizational disasters... however, this morning I was not making jewelry but rather working on a memorial of sorts, for a beloved animal I lost last November. Yeah, long time ago really, one might think if they've never loved an animal, but truth is, whether they be feathers, fur or flesh..they are just containers for love. I thought collage art would be a great way for me to express my heart about the matter. I've written about it, talked about it, cried about it ... here I "draw and paint" about it. My first try at collage art ... sort of funky and amature but the fun working with glue and paint is always worth the mess and worry that it's never good enough! You who have stopped by to visit me are so lucky! You get to be the first to see it. My ode to Arwen.


Have a lovely day!

Hello,
Thought I would take a visit here after you visited our blog. Thanks for the kind comments on the ceramic jewellery. We also have a more 'chatty' blog, which we update every few days with new things created, so hope you come by there to say helo from time to time: www.naturalattrill.blogspot.com

I like your collages, especially the 'let go' one.
Lovely to see all your jewellery as well.

Penny.

What wonderful collage art! You really made these?! You are a most excellent writer, and now you're a collage artist, too. Impressive.

How did you learn how? I mean, did a paper-collage book or something else inspire you?
