Clay bird on Canvas

I had fun doing this yesterday. Of course, one of my all time favorites is clay. This will be listed in our etsy site.

I have been working on some gallery pieces lately. This was going to be one of them but, now it has found its way onto my living room wall. I love the deep colors. This is still me playing around though. I love experimenting to see what happens. This was a transfer onto muslin.

I saw this little canvas laying on my table today and thought that I would give it a new look. We have been dealing with some kinda icky sickness at my house for the past two weeks and needless to say, I have not done much creating. I took advantage of Cody being around and stole some time in my room. I have been playing around with a few new technique and experimenting. Much like the canvas I did with the two kiddos, this little one uses the same techniques just different style. Less scrapbook. I love the way it turned out. I could not even wait for everything to dry before taking this photo. I used a 4" by 6" canvas board. It is sitting on my mantle. I don't know if that is it's permanent home yet. We will see.

August 6, I am still alive!

I have been so quiet lately. I know it is because there just has not been a lot of time to create the past couple of months with all the summer activities going on and the kids being home. I finally told them today that it was Mommy's turn to sit and do something in her room. It was still difficult but I did get some experimenting done. Then worked on a piece for Cody to take to work. I used an Easter picture because I was feeling the blue and green. It was good to sit down and get gel medium and gesso all over my fingers. School is starting soon and I am looking forward to getting back into a routine!

Finally Back!!! July 9

Well, we are finally back from vacation. I can honestly say that I could not be happier. I am such a home body. It was fun but hard to be away that long. I think eight days might be too long to be away. This is a cute pic that Cody took of me and the kids in St. Louis. I am anxious to start creating. I took some great pics of unusual trees while I was gone and added to my Queen's Ann Lace collection. The people we visited thought it was hilarious that I was out on the gravel road with a phone book collecting weeds and taking pictures of their trees. It was funny.
