What Else? Art

Hello Readers!

It's going to be a short one this morning! I have places to be today!

Let's get with it .......

I made a few chunky pages over the weekend. Collage seemed to be predominate in that endeavor but the painting muse was in full force that day as well.

Some times, she just can't be satisfied with one medium.

Orange Fish

Chunky page.

Acrylics on drink coaster with part of an onion bag, some seed beads, a bit of glitter glue, then the fish which was done in acrylics on book page paper and cut out with the craft knife and lastly some more orange crochet cotton thread.

I made some make-shift stamping implements the day before I made the orange fish chunky. Those light blue stripes on the background of the orange fish are imprints made by a man-made sponge that once functioned as an air filter for a small appliance of some sort. I like the effect it made on the paper! I'll be using it again and again in the future.

I made drawings of more fish and finished the pink one you all saw in the last post.

Pink Fish

8.5 inches long

He's done in acrylics, markers and glitter glue.

I'm not so sure about having added the glitter glue. I liked him better without it but it's too late now! And he's traded so I shouldn't really worry about the glitter glue. Doesn't matter that I don't like it!

Another Fish Chunky

that red string in upper left corner was on the scanner. Should have cleaned the scanner after scanning all those fuzzy red kitties from the last post! I didn't though.

I've made progress on the felt ornaments but there are still three or four of them to finish sewing and all of them to add the hangers to still. I'll show them off in the next post. Surely by then they'll done?

I've also started another monster. This one in pink velvet. Perhaps she will have come together by the next post as well?

Thanks for taking a peek! 

Be good to one another!

 It matters!

I know you all get tired of me saying that...but it does 

matter! It really does!

Peace, my friends!
