creatively speaking, still using orange scraps in May and painting with all the colors!

 


I turned one of the little orange scrap projects into a phone bag for walks. It's on the left, above and around my neck here...

ignore no make up, I'm headed out for yet another HOT walk in the Colorado sunshine. 
I like the texture in this bag and the embroidery

There is another hexie spiral in oranges waiting for a few more hexies and to be sewn together

I'm trying to do some painting/drawing/art-ing in the mornings, and this was a double page one morning
I took a recipe copier paper I was going to recycle and painted stripes across it with markers and paints, and stamps for fun
then tore it into strips
and more strips
played with the collage, I always pack in too much, on the left above. Painted a couple leaves, then moved on to the next page where I collaged the rejected strips into a sort of tree

one thicker strip will become dh's bookmark
I think I like the sparse tree best
note to self, more negative space, it's not wasting journal pages, it's a "look"


Painted my bowl one morning

loved using stamps and ink to do the clovers, and caligraphy pens to make checkerboard effect


I used an alphabet stamp and multi color ink stamp to do a background but not sure what I want to be the focus yes... 

puppy feet??
