Here is my mixed media collage

This is my latest original I was experimenting with this week. I have added a little paper to my pieces before. I will adding more in future designs.

Happy Friday!

My hubby and I went out on a date last week to dinner. After our meal we stopped by the bookstore like we used to do (before kids). I found this wonderful magazine Cloth Paper Scissors. It includes mixed media art and collage from various artist. I have been looking at it often this week and it has been inspirational! I have even created a new piece. I used to work in collage solely a long time ago. It was fun to revisit this medium again combining paper and paint in my piece. This magazine should be available in your local bookstore. Their website is: clothpaperscissors.com

I Love My Java

I made these little coffee cups to go hang up in my kitchen. If your a coffee lover like me these make the perfect accent to a room. I painted the pair on a heavy muslin, then I sewed the front and back together. I padded the inside with some batting, then added a circular plastic ring on the back by hand sewing on the back of the cup to hang on the wall. I think they are so cute!

I've got another Birdie

Happy Valentines Day! I've got another birdie to my collection!

Middle Colonies

My daughther had to create an edible representation of the middle colonies. We made cookie dough for the states which include: New York, Pennsylvania, Delware and New Jersey. It turned out very nice!

I've Got Another Fanciful Bird!

This is the latest of my bird series. Watch out cause this hot tamale has got quite a temper!

Sweet Little Angels

In the past I have created angels as my subject matter. I wanted to make new images with my current style. These cute little ladies would look great in a little girl's room.
