I just finished my Just for FUN mixed media painting. I used, papers, acrylic paint, watercolor, oil pastel on a 16" x 20" canvas.

Another WIP...

I have always loved sketching horses as a young girl and haven't really done this in awhile. I have to use my imagination or old photos because I can't even go 100ft near them I am terribly allergic to these magnificent creatures! Here is my sketch for a painting I have in mind and can't wait to get it on canvas!

Playing through a mood....NOW IN MY ETSY SHOP!

I was going to sew this in a journal but took Carrie's advice and mounted it. I collagedit onto an 8" x 8" x 1 1/4" canvas to which I applied some acrylic paint, etc. This is what saved my brain for today! It kept the seratonin flowin.

Monsoon day 5 WIP...

The top photo is in my watercolor journal I got Fwed's eyes which was my objective besides keeping busy and creative. The bottom photo began from a blotted watercolor pad. I use my wc pad as a desk protector most times. The blotted background is Golden Q Adzo Gold. I then used walnut ink to create the outline of the cat and then added more watercolor and some white gel pen. I think I have capture Circe's (my cat companion)eyes. I may stop here. I have various projects lying around waiting for me to finish or not. So I guess I will just move onto something else.

We are having 3 days maybe 4 of monsoon here in the PNW!

So here is one of my rainy day projects! I had a piece of muslin to which I added plaster cloth to and left it and rediscovered it. I got out my water color paints and painted a face (what else?) I then collaged decorative paper napkin over top. I have a ton of decorated paper napkins that I have to use up! So you will see this one in other projects. The muslin with plaster cloth is inspired by Lynne Hoppe. Her blog is on my blog list below if you'd like to see her work! I plan on stitching my piece into a journal! This was a fast project after the cloth dried.

I have also played with ACEO card making and have about 25 or so made up. I have been lazy about getting them together to take a picture of them but will soon (I think).
