I’m working on my biggest peice of art, ever (besides the windows I used to paint). I’m creating my 3rd work in my ‘twilight’ series, and it’s a whopping 24 x 36 inches, which is huge for me. Pat found a clever way for my little easel to hold my canvas, which has helped alot. Here’s a few shots to see it coming along in stages… (still need to add the tree trunks & stars) Oh the quality of the shot sucks, but I didn’t want to take the time to fuss with it – I’ll save the work till the final pic.
While up in Newport at the craft store I found some teeny tiny glass animals. I picked up a green tucan for my Mom and I got this little blue bird for myself. It’s only 3/4 of an inch from tip of the beak to the end of the tail. I have this cute little thing on my monitor where the light from the window can shine through it.

Twilight and the Cup cake
Tuesday, September 26th, 2006I found these snazzy paper mache ‘plaques’ at Micheals, on sale, so I did what I always do and got 3. One to ‘try’ one to sell if it turns out good, and one to keep if I like it, for another project. I’m weird, I know, but this has worked well when I’m finding/trying something new, and I’m at least 55 miles from anywhere.
So, since I have finally
found my style
…. here is more of it, on my new paper mache plaques! Click to see them larger.
