today was a joy!
yesterday was a joy!
day before that? yup ... a joy ....
i've had the good fortune of having loads of art time on my hands .....
i started with 18 small canvases .... six inches squared .... i chose 18 cause it fit nicely into the tidy spot on my table ....
then i took a deeper yellow and used it to stamp letters on .... for a bit of texture, some color interest, and to hide some map bits .....
then? i added words .... and i was nervous ... so i started with easy (for me) words ..... egg.... nest .... but feather? i'm not sure that's easy ... but it certainly thematically goes along with the artist i am becoming .....
and then .... this photo is from near the end of today ..... i have 18 canvases with backgrounds... 12 canvases with words ..... and four with iconic pictures .....
here's one ..... egg ..... ta dum ... finished ... the 73rd painting of the year ... and officially the first of a new series .....
and one happy shout out to my pal al ... she spent the afternoon painting with me! rah for that .....
and now .... the truth about me ... yesterday's post ? prizes and questions and fabulous participation from my faithful readers ..... did you read it? did you see it? did you participate? are you going to be the prize winner(s)? .... so.... back to the truth .... i did that post because i was too tired to upload my egg picture .....
but tomorrow ... or the next day .....the next time i need a happy blog diversion, i am going to answer each and every one of those questions ... some of them are excellent and well worthy of a prize .... so keep asking them .... quantity is a lovely goal ..... i'm loving getting them ....
any questions .... ?
