Violets Garden

Before the additions.

This mixed media on canvas is 20 x 32.

A reclaimed picture frame was in horrid condition (dumpster find)
but was a sure thing for me, the inspiration for the lay out certainly.

A section of the metal fence around the cedar tree, the usual bright flowered paper and it was heaven to work again in this medium.

No bling yet, but that is in the back of my mind...

strange patterns

Finished a collage on Saturday, so I had a good excuse to do some running... but by that I meant THRIFTING..

The new store down the highway was a bust, because I couldnt find it.

So nothing to do but come home and start sorting out the mud room, and in the heat it will not
be pretty.

Collections Show Aug 13 2011

Ironing needed, durnit... next time

Name spelled wrong - first and last

ha ha ha

My ALTERED SHOES were very much a different "collection"

the other collections were very very nice, and I had to laugh that I have more

"collections" at home than I realized... clocks, clocks I make, clocks that are battery,

clocks that have something moving on them, like a pendulum

Clocks that I have rescued the inner workings, or face, or hands to use in other projects

wow, I have a COLLECTION of left overs that I should put on Craigs List!

50 folks came thru the open house ($5 a head-kids free)

A client came in and we recognised each other from a one time meeting, and then recognised all the stuff we have in COMMON... wow...

So a great day after all!

Mom liked it a lot

She didn't remember it, but she liked it!

Studio Chair etc

Lucykitty is already enjoying it, I may just throw a towel over it...

Born 2B Wild

give me some fabric and a beat up motorcycle jacket

a couple of clocks

a plywood "aerobic step" from my dancing days

who knows what will happen??

Sometimes, I get a funny feeling deep inside

where does this stuff come from?

nothing was purchased for this project

it was not in a group

it was not stored together

it was just a 'thing' that happened in a few hours

when my dh says "what did you do today?".. lol

Pussie Galore & Lamp post

um.. a slutty cat and her lamp post for my daughter k8.. I called her a tart kitty

she and her friend re-named her...
