Art on Friday


Time for a share of some of the art I have created this week and a look at some of the themes of challenges I participated in.

Paper, Paint , Pencils, Pens!
This art community posts 2 themes a month and we all respond to it in different ways.
I created my second watercolour self-portrait this week, by looking in a mirror. My concentration made me appear much more serious.



Tag a Day
I am continuing with my 366 day project - with 4 more collaged tags as well as 1 tag for ABC Wednesday weekly challenge (A is for Arrow)

.



Colour Me Positive
I am enjoying the weekly journal challenge at Colour Me Positive. The quote relates to living fully each day and also encouraged us to use lyrics in our spread.


(I tried for layers - with inks, paint, stencils and stamps - it is a wee bit "Busy"!)


52 Card Pick-up
The theme for this weekly card challenge on facebook  this week was "Today". I related it to living our dreams.

Art on Friday



I've been able to play more with paint and paper this week. I've joined an art group to share my art  based on a theme and have started a new challenge for September.

Paper, Paint, Pencils and Pens! welcomes artists to take part in the themes.From Sept. 1 -15 the theme is "All Kinds of Trees". Drop by - take part.
Here was my entry:




Journal Page
I used the tree background above to create this journal page:


(The quote is by Abraham Lincoln.)


Collages
I have always enjoyed creating collages and I started a new challenge for myself this month on art cards 4 1/2" x 6 1/2" I also have a huge stash of papers and want to make a dent in them. I have again tried to use stamps. I hope to do more stamp carving this month as well.





APCs
After a break of a few months I have returned to created ATCs with ATCsForAll. The swaps are a fun way to create art and then get new cards from other artists. Here's my latest set - creating a playing card set by the end, using used stamps.
