Hi Everybody!

This mixed media A4 piece was made last week using a 

paper napkin on a painted and textured background. The dots were
sponged on using a stencil with red, orange and black paint.
The quote is from Nelson Mandela. I am linking to
Art Journal Journey,

Yvonne's theme of out and about.

These were taken on my way to the clinic last week:

This little chappie was sitting on a nest box and singing

as loud as he could:

 Trees are blossoming:

Saturday was cold and wet, but the gulls don't mind:

  I always love watching the day grow light:

Have a great day, take care,

and thanks a lot for coming by!

Weekend post

Hi Everybody!

This has been a good week, but a very strenuous one,

and I am looking forward to a restful weekend.

For Paint Party Friday and Art Journal Journey, Yvonne's lovely theme 

of out and about, I have a mixed media A3 page. The background was 

painted and textured with a patterned brayer, and the image 

was cut from a magazine called Geo. 

I added some painted strips and

feathers to her headdress, and more painted strips for the quote. I used

a stencil to paint the dots with a sponge.

At Go tag Thursday the theme is to use a quote or

verse. I made a mixed media tag, using an image from Gecko Galz, 

and some natural materials as embellishments. I am also linking to

Tag Tuesday, hats and headgear:

The photos were all taken 'down by the riverside'

in the past days:

Have a great weekend, take care,

and thanks a lot for coming by!

This and that

Hi Everybody!

For Paint Party Friday, hosted by Eva and Kristin, I have a large

mixed media piece in A2 (24x17") which I made

recently . The background was painted in red, with blue and purple accents added on with a textured brayer. I added lots of paper 

fragments and some gold leaf. The heads were cut from white paper, 

painted, stenciled and collaged. 

The flying figures were added with a stencil and black Edding pen,

highlighted with white.

I m also linking to Art Journal Journey, Yvonne's lovely theme

of out and about.

A few photos from the past couple of days:

Love this bench, the sign says 'reserved for nice meetings'

Have a great day, take care,

and hanks a lot for coming by!
