"Y" is for "Yikes!"

YiKeS! 
I keep missing my Jenny's AlphabeThursday friends!

It's because I've been distracted...Yet again...

Working hard making Yoodles of artsy stuff...


My little tabletop is filling up with Yummies!  Hope to share more soon!
Happy  "Y" day  to "You":)

She went out on a limb.....

Pure Heart


The original canvas of three posted here
"magically" transformed into one...


A fortune cookie message appeared on her arm...
"Your heart is pure, and your mind clear, and soul devout."


Acrylics, oil pastels, pens, etc.
Wishing all a peaceful week.....

Sharing Bday Treasures

49 is another good birthday year....

I am blessed with thoughtful family and friends...

I tried to capture some of the gifts I received...THIS MAC compliments of my husband's supportive nature....

A lovely hanger from my daughter that I've admired many times at Pier One (and she chose it on her own)

I got dollars from Ma n Pa - yes, they still do that for a 49 year old - and I spent some on a book in Sante Fe that I thought was PERFECT for my art - Pictoral Webster's....and magazines - this one features one of my fave artists that I follow...and probably you do too...Diane Salter - so thrilled she was published in this edition...


And Just Look at this beautiful piece handmade by my pal....

So perfectly detailed and personalized... she had a whole theme in store for my yummy bday lunch with her.....

GARDENS...which we both share a love for....

I don't want to give too much away, for she will soon be opening her very own etsy shop...





and sharing her one of a kind pieces.....

I keep encouraging her to start a blog and share her talents....

But regardless, I love my bday treasures, my family, friends and think 49 is going to continue to be a GOOD year!

Paint Party Friday 2

Wednesday, I posted a canvas I began...




Acrylics, stamps, lots of various papers including maps, telephone pages and scrapbook paper ripped for the rough edge..
As of last eve, here's the progress.... pardon the ever present glare I always get with early morning photo's on the desk...



More of the same materials mentioned above...added some napkins because I love the translucency and experimented with conte crayons on the skin tones.  Initially, I really loved the way they blended, but the more I worked with them, the less "blendable" they became.  Still trying to figure that one out, but even so, will definitely try them again ...perhaps on paper next round.


One last photo with some digital elements applied....and I will leave you to explore and or join in on other paint parties by clicking on the link below:)

Sing

What's on Your Workdesk Wednesday?



This week, I had a visitor on my workdesk.    
She didn't mind the paper scraps, or paints, or pens, or brushes, or scissors strewn about....
Her eye was drawn to one thing only....
She had a delivery you see...
And a "fluffy" place to land...
 
Hope You 
and All the Participants of Julia's WOYWW 
Have a Sweet Day!

You can explore other workdesks HERE.
