Thank you Leah and everyone I’ve met during Art Every Day Month. This was my first year participating and it has been a magical adventure. I completed more art in this one month than I have in the last 3 combined! This is a piece in progress – I felt it was a perfect background for my watercolor crayon “thanks” because of the ladies (and guys). AEDM is about art but mostly it is about the people – people willing to share their journey & encourage others. As an unexpected bonus I won a beautiful set of cards over at Tracey Fletcher King’s blog! Could this month get any better? I’m off to feverishly start signing up to follow blogs so I don’t miss out on future posts!
I finished up the background on this piece and I am now just enjoying it until my muse gives me a hint where to take it next. I must confess I tried to force the next step on this painting and my muse stormed out due to my impatience. Perhaps my impatience is coming from the reality that there is just a wee bit of time left in Art Every Day Month.
Used some number foam stamps I created. This felt like a gumball machine to me – not my goal…
A bit of gesso to calm down the gumballs & a leftover from a die cut.
Decided to create texture out of my scrap box.
The layers of paint, ink, really anything with in reach.
A stencil on the edge and now I’ll sit with it and see where to take it next.
Day 28 of Art Every Day Month already? Where has the time gone????? It has been a bit of a jumble around here – wonderful family visits, Black Friday shopping, and the chaos of life has led to lots of projects in the works. I finally have my scanner set up in a place that makes it easy to use so now I can do more digital/print hybrid projects. This is going to be very important with Christmas coming. Here are a few sneak peeks of what I’ve been up to lately (from my scanner). Things haven’t gone as planned for me – life has a way of doing that sometimes. Does that ever happen to you?
