New Online Class coming soon!

I have been asked by many to share my painting techniques. I have decided to offer a series of painting classes. The 1st series will show 4 separate techniques that can be used on any art form. The photo above is #2 and I got a little carried away lol After I finished the technique and I was ready to seal and move on to #3 the canvas SCREAMED "I need wild flowers." So I obeyed and voila, wild flowers lol

WIP ~ strainer has an eye wohooooooo!!!

I am having way too much fun on Sherry's Mixed Media piece. The foundation for the face is in place. Now to add the "skin." Sherry's colors are brown's and coppers. I think I need to throw in some reds :p We shall see what the piece tells me to do.

Another new project

Here I go gathering again :) My good friend asked me to create a mixed media wall hanging for her new home. I am very excited to create something that is really ME ! Crazy and off the wall ! The body is an old slicer of some kind. Not sure what it is but I imagine it was used to slice vegetables, meats, cheese, fingers ??? lol The blades are sharp and rusted and I love the "feel" of the old wood. Initially I was going to stick with old/vintage but a trip through the plumbing department at Home Dept shot that all to hell :p So I am gathering items form around my home, adding my own twist so we shall see where this goes. Will keep you posted.
