Monday

I haven't had much of a chance to work on my art. I managed to make an ATC for a group I'm in. Have to get ready for work, and I always feel good when I can manage to get some art done during the week. Tomorrow will be a busy day, on many levels. I have to do some training to a diverse group of people and I just don't want to do it. I think I'm wearing out and am ready to retire. Gosh, that sounds nice! Anyway, here's my Angel of Blue

More Halloween!

Gothic arches...I love making them! Here's a Witchy I did for a swap I hosted. I had a great time slapping on paint and then adding elements. Now I wish I had made a second for myself! Maybe I will when the granddaughter goes home this evening. She'll be a witchy, too. I couldn't help but smile when she modeled the boots that complete her costume :o)

Halloween!

I love Halloween! Can't resist decorating the whole house, every year I end up buying new things to put out. Creating art is lots of fun, too! For the "Think Monday ATC" challenge, I'm offering an ATC I made for a swap. I call it "She Waits".

Sunday Postcard

The theme is Marie Antoinette...interesting, eh? I pulled out my Golden paints and just had at it. And Happy Birthday, Mandy!!!

We had our first hard frost last night...my car is covered in a lovely Jack Frost design. And our leaves are beautiful this year. Time for a drive to the Shenandoah this weekend!

Patchwork Paper

Gothic Arches theme this week is Patchwork Paper. Interesting! All of the arches I viewed are stunning! I certainly did a lot of patching with paper to create mine. I found this wonderful picture of 6 men in top hats and I couldn't resist using it in some fashion...well, patchwork paper was the perfect venue for my 6 gentlemen.

Men

Sunday Postcard Art...I decided to try the postcard size, I don't think I've ever given it a go before. The theme is "Men". You know, most of the art done is of women or children. I liked this paper I had...and the theme just seemed to lend itself to it. It was nice having the day off, afforded the opportunity to catch up on art and chores. Happy Thanksgiving to my Canadian friends!

Haute Couture

Well, time for a new arch...haute couture. I followed traditional lines, I think...but I have an idea for another arch for this theme, just don't have the time right now (2 a.m....what am I doing up so late? Watching John Wayne's "North to Alaska" - one of my favorites!)
