The sun has come out again. We have had some stormy weather here lately, but alas the sun is out again. I feel spring commin on. These pics are from our bike ride to the Orange Plaza circle for lunch. We ate Jalapenos' cheesy quesadillas. Talk about cheesy.
Just some pictures to share from the jr. high art front. We did iArt and each student created their own "i" poster, and we made chunky books last semester and we are in the process of making stick sculptures that are really fun.
Just sharing a couple of assignments for the Red Bee. I made a layout of my mother-in-law when she was 4 years old. Isn't she cute. She is still cute. And I made a few cards for a display using a few different black and white papers. I love black and white. I am off to church and then the Red Bee to display them.
These are some of the atcs from the mixed media heart swap. There were so many lovely heart cards made for the swap, and being the hostess I got a lot of hostess cards to keep. Thanks everyone. And there is a new atc site to check out, it's called atcs for all. I am scrappin at the Red Bee tonight, so look forward to some new layouts shared soon. I also have been really inspired by some artists I've found. Check out Traci Bautista and D.J. Pettitt. I met Traci at CHA and got her new book, Collage Unleashed
Well, can you tell softball season is starting again? Emma is on a new team called Blue Steal. They asked me to make a run can for the team, so fans can donate a quarter each time a run comes in and the girls can have a party with the money at the end of the season. I found this cute can at the goodwill and the rest of the stuff came from my stash. Go Blue Steal.
At the CHA show last week I watched one of my favorite artists, Claudine Hellmuth do some mixed collage tags at the Ranger booth, with alcohol inks and glossy accents. I was so inspired I came home and got out my supplies and started playing around with some of her techniques. This is what I came up with. Now I am in the process of doing an entire canvas with steps from one of the Somerset Studio magazines. I'm completely inspired..... You?
