Art Project with Michel

My art friend, Michel and I have been doing art projects for almost a year now. And we like to challenge each other with different materials to work with. We have altered board books, compacts, tins and now an aol mailing box. Michel had the boxes laying around and suggested we play with them. There was no theme, we do calling this playing so we try not to limit ourselves with a theme. Most of my art sheets used are from Teesha Moore, love her stuff and the quote is Ocsar Wilde. I find that he had a lot of delightful things to say.
My lady is have a dominoe for a face, just the lips. We all know that women have a lot of important things to say, expecially when wearing their favorite shade of red lipstick. Try red lipstick, and it just might change your life, too. Thanks for the aol box and for challenging me, Michel. Do something creative everyday. Have an artful day.

Happy Mother's Day

Just taking a moment to wish all my friends, family and fellow artists a wonderful and blessed Mother's Day.

"All women become like their mothers.

That is their tradegy.

No man does.

That's his."

A quote from Oscar Wilde, the Important of Being Earnest. And it speaks volumes. Have a great day.

for Elena

This composition notebook is for my sweet niece, Elena. I think the girl on the cover looks just a bit like Elena. I made her a notebook last year and she had filled the pages with her thought and doodles and needed another. So I went to work on it and mailed it off to Southampton, England. She just got it and loved it. That is the best compliment I could receive. Fill it with your wishes and dreams. I love you bunches. Of course, I did add with word dream in the bottom right hand side after I took this photo. But that is just the artisitc view of "it just needs one more thing." lol. Have a creative day, everyone.

Please...........

take a look at my Twilight photo on my blog. It's part of today's posting under older posts. I couldn't stop myself from asking this favor!!! Twilight Obesession. Thanks

New Bulletin Board

This bulletin board was too perfect when I spies it at Marshall's, one of my many favorite places to shop. I cleaned up my art space in March for a couple of days and I knew that I needed a new board and this one fits in so well. That is a license plate from Aruba from my last trip there. The picture is of Kat, my goddaughter, with her new glasses on her smiling, shining face for me to look at when I am in my art studio . I adore her just as much as I adore my board.

Art Studio Sign

Since the day I stepped foot in my art studio I have always had a sign for my door. I wanted it a welcome for myself and others into my space. The old sign had seen better days and I just finished making this one. It might be a little hard to see with all the sparkly areas but I just love it. Of course, Teesha Moore's cheeky girls adorn it. The girls have enough sass and glitter to make that welcome all the more special. I smile every time I walk in the door to be creative - in my own way. Thanks, girls.

Lovely Lady
