Thirty Paintings in 30 Days – Day 1

It’s September!  I know everyone thinks of autumn once September rolls around, but here we’re still in the middle of summer, with temperatures over 90 degrees all this week.  I have to confess I am looking forward to some cooler weather. Again, this year, I’m taking part in Leslie Saeta’s challenge to do Thirty Paintings […]

Wisdom Sparkled

Wisdom Sparkled by Tori Beveridge   It reads “and as she breathed wisdom sparkled” Inspired by a Life Book 2015 lesson by Danielle Donaldson. Watercolor, acrylic and ink

Keep Moving Forward

Sometimes, like Alice does in Wonderland, ‘I give myself very good advice but I very seldom follow it.” So…. let’s just say for the past weeks, I’ve been telling myself I should be blogging, but I haven’t been listening to myself. After a very intensive stretch of working for Sympatico Studio (which I really did […]

New Art – The Beekeeper

Back in February, I did a sketch for 29 Faces.  Last week, when I had little bits of time, I finally painted it.  It’s called The Beekeeper. It’s worked in watercolor, acrylic, collage, and ink on 9 X 12 140 lb cold press water color paper.  The actual painting is much softer, more pastel, and […]

29 Faces – Face 2

For my second face, I finally did the first week’s lesson of Life Book 2015, Beacon of Light. Of course it took on a life of it’s own and although influenced by Tam’s beautiful art, looks so different from the painting in the lesson.  I’ll probably end up doing another or others. Believe in Yourself […]

29 Faces – Face 1 Sherry Malone

When I realized that the 29 Faces Challenge February 2015 was already underway, I had to stop and evaluate where time had gone and what the heck I’d been doing that made me go through the whole month of January without getting paint on my hands every day.  (I have done art, but it’s been […]

Can You, Journal Page Spread

Earlier this week, someone in a Facebook group I’m a member of, shared an art journal exercise/prompt, to flip through magazines and cut out words that spoke to you.  Then you were to use the words in your journal.  Her journal pages were inspiring.  They were filled with words that were characteristics of the person […]

Shabby Wren Collage

It’s not very often that I do collage.  Wait.  That’s not exactly the truth.   Let me clarify. It’s not very often that I do collage and don’t do any painting or sketching or doodling along with it. When I got the opportunity to take part in a “Shabby Chic” ATC Swap, I jumped in […]
