So it's been a while since I've written here...guess I got busy with work and the holidays. The new year brings new opportunities and possibilities. I spent my two week vacation hanging out with friends and family and catching up on some art projects. I belong to a couple of art groups on Yahoo and I try to enter as many of the art challenges as possible to keep me making art on a weekly basis. I recently entered a few swaps on the Artchix Studio Yahoo group (See pictures below of the "inchies" and "itty bittys"). Eventually it would be nice to just make art at random, but for now, I need to re-train my brain into believing that art feels good and that I love to do it--which I do, but somewhere in there my brain also learned to get bored or tired when I just can't "get it right." I see that same joy/pain in my daughter when she's making art. We do a lot of projects side by side--really the only way to get any art done with a child around! But I love that we can spend time together and make art together. I hope it's something we'll always do. So anyway, here are some collages I've created over the last week...ATC (Artist Trading Card) size: 2.5" x 3.5" "Heaven Sent"
