Bear with me.....

I apologize for the lack of posting --- I am having some health issues and not feeling well at all. I will be back as soon as I can.

new day, new collage

Having fun in my studio. (Who doesn't like a bunny?)

Collage made with antique book page, various papers, colored pencil, mounted on black matboard.

New blog colors and new art doll

I had switched my blog from a black background to a white one. I tried it for about a month and, I tell you, it just wasn't doing it for me --- I needed some color!! Well, how do you like this?! I absolutely LOVE it, and I think it suits me and my style much better. (Ah, but knowing me and my many moods, this could change without a moment's notice. Don't say I didn't warn you.)

Anyhoo, here is my latest creation.




She sat for awhile at a certain stage, while I pondered and pondered what to do. Finally, I just kicked myself in the butt and got to it! I finished her yesterday. The 'in disguise' theme is kind of fitting for Halloween, don't you think?

Finley

Meet Finley, my latest doll creation. I didn't have a plan; he just turned out as Finley! I love him --- he kind of has a Teesha Moore feel to him. All that color and texture. He wasn't even shy about the camera; in fact, he just loved it! (I mean, look at the pout.)

Vacation!!

I will be on a much-needed vacation from Friday, Sept. 11 through Saturday, Sept. 26th. First we'll see Boston, then visit family in Jackson, Wyoming. I'll take lots of pics!

I woke up this morning with this little bird in my head. After I painted her, the rest just happened.
I love it best when it works out like that.

Collage made with vintage book pages, acrylic paint, pencil and oil pastels. Mounted on acid free matboard.

Softie Love

For all of you softie lovers out there, hope this brightens your Monday like it did mine :)
