ART on Friday


We are already mid June - how time does fly.
Here are a few of the pieces I have created this week.

Colour Me Positive
I am back to creating a journal spread for this weekly challenge at LuLu Art. My plan is to complete all the themes I've missed over the summer.
Week 23:



365 Project
This past week I created collages once again.





ICAD
This daily art project can be found at Daisy Yellow - a fun way to create quick collages in a most non-threatening way. Here are a few favs. from this week:





Sunday Postcard Art
The theme this week at Sunday Postcard Art was "Silhouettes"



Tags
I created this tag for:
Tag Tuesday (theme: Texture)  and Go Tag Thursday (theme: Anything Goes)

I used several motifs that I use a lot in my art - hearts, stars and birds. What motifs do you use often?




Photography
I had to share some of the flowers in our gardens.

ART on Friday


Here it is the first riday of April and I am back after a short (needed) break.
here are a few things I have been working on this week:

Colour Me Positive
This is last week's theme at LuLu Art - creating your own sunshine!




CHALLENGES:
Tag Tuesday -Things with Wings




Try it On Tuesday - Botanicals
Go Tag Thursday - Stamp It



The Collage Workbook
The project I worked on this week was "Seeing Doubles". My doubles were used stamps - which I have so many.



Project 365
For April, I have decided to create a daily zen. I have missed creating small zen cards - these are a bit larger, but as enjoyable and relaxing.





What are you working on for April?

ART on Friday


It is time once again to share some of what I have been working on this week. I must admit that the past two weeks have seen me creating very little. My hubby finally had his angiogram this week after having it cancelled last week. It has been a stressful few weeks. The finding was that there were no blockages - not sure where we go from here now.

Colour Me Positive
I did complete this week's challenge from LuLu Art - how what we sow today, may not have effect for some time.



Tag Tuesday
The theme this week at Tag Tuesday is "Birds and Nests"




The Collage Workbook
I only worked on 1 challenge - Maps.



Speak Out Cards
Here are the last few "speak out" cards I created for ABC Wednesday:








Spring Vision Board
With each new season, I create a vision board that helps me focus on what I hope to accomplish for the next three months. With spring arriving last Monday, I created this vision board.(My OLW is at the bottom - cultivate)

ART on Friday (shared on Saturday!)


Some weeks, just getting to share at all is okay, even if it is a day late.
Here are a few things I have been working on this week:

Colour Me Positive
This week the challenge at LuLu Art was being grateful. I try most days to lest a few things I am grateful for - it really does lift your mood.




Challenges

Sunday Postcard Art
I have started to take part in this challenge and the theme is "Poetry". As I looked through the words I had cut out, it struck me that many focused on what life is - so the poem is "Life is..."



ABC Wednesday
For I this week, I created a card for Internation Women's Day:






The Collage Workbook
I am slowly working through the challenges in this fun book. The latest one was on hands.

ART on Friday/Saturday


A day late to post I know - but some weeks and days just become busier than others.
Here are some of the things I was working on this week:

Colour Me Positive
This weekly challenge hosted at LuLu Art has been most enjoyable. I find deciding how to interpret the theme (this week it is moving forward) as well as searching for complimentary quotes.



The Collage Workbook
I did a couple of exercises from the book this week:

Frankenstein
This is a fun project I always did with my students and they loved it. Interchanging body parts can get interesting.


Recycle
I grabbed a bunch of junk mail flyers and then created these 2 cards:


29 Faces
Here are 4 more faces for this February challenge:


Art Cards
Here's my  "SPEAK OUT" card for the ABC Wednesday Challenge:



I also created some art cards and tags for several challenges this week. Here's the link to the post on the cards.

ART on Friday


Another has passed by - and a few more art pieces completed. I need that time to play with paint and paper - it is helping to keep my stress level down.

Colour Me Positive
The theme of love is an appropriate one for this week at LuLu Art- and the quote points to the mystery of why we fall in love with who we do.



Tag Tuesday
The theme for this week at Tag Tuesday was "bookworm" and when I found the quote I used, I knew it was appropriate for the holiday coming.



The Collage Workbook
I focused on the exercise on birds as I have stamps and lots of pictures of birds. Plowman says this of birds in this wonderful resource book I am using:
"I see them as a link between the heavens and the earth, and as a symbol of rebirth and resurrection."



29 Faces
Here are the last 3 faces I did this week for this challenge:
