Dabbling in Watercolors

I picked up two watercolor/pen & ink sketchbooks this weekend.  One of them is 3.5″ x 5/5″ and the other is 5.25″ x 8″.  They were the best price for quality and quantity.  They’re leather bound but have an elastic strap to keep them closed and they had more paper per booklet than they others.  [...]

Still Working

I haven’t had many Art Blog posts with most recent posts being Pie Blog posts, but I have been working.  My progress is just very, very slow. Earlier I made a made an entry asking what people thought about the photos of my work, because I was starting to enter my work in some shows [...]

Do Art! Kitemaking

Last night I made the first prototype of the small, delta kite that I will be helping people make at Muddy Creek Artists Guild’s Do Art! day.  Typically when people make kites for festivals they make a sled.  However, since this is an artist’s group, I sensed that they wanted something more traditional.  Being that [...]

Mailbox and Art Day

This weekend was rough because I had headaches which make me not want to work on my collages.  However, I worked on decorating my new mailbox because, for whatever reason my brain thinks that takes less effort.  So, the pictures are of it.  I’m pleased that I was able to keep working and be creative [...]

Digital Art

In 2007, the week before my birthday, I made a bunch of digital collages with different positive affirmations on them.  Since I am not able to make many posts about the progress of my art since it is slow going due to having a full time job that, to be quite honest, drains me and [...]

Photographing Art

Having a professional photographer shoot one’s art work is essential. My question is, am I asking my photographer to do it in the best way possible?

Pleasant Working Weekend

While the weekend wasn’t a raging success in the area of art sales, it was good exposure and networking.  It was also fairly productive.  While it won’t look like it if I showed an image of the Heron since I last worked on it.  The final steps to getting a collage of this complexity done [...]
