Stamping Away

I have showed you before my attempts to silk screen on fabric. To be honest with you, I am still trying to perfect the technique. I'll keep you posted on my progress. Yesterday, I purchased a Speedball stamping kit from Hobby Lobby. The stamp is made out of an eraser like material, which is much easier to cut than linoleum block. After I stamped the image, I embellished it with a line drawing. I am experimenting a few ideas to use for Christmas cards. It is so much fun playing around with this technique. I feel like a kid in art class!

Taste of Suwanee







I wanted to show you some pictures of my show at the Taste of Suwanee. The day was cloudy and cold the entire day. The attendance was good but everyone was not expecting the weather to be this chilly. The staff was great, and the volunteers were fantastic, and my family was such a great help to me.

Collectibles

I wanted to highlight some of my images that I have in 3D. These figurenes are available in my 1000 Markets shop, and I hope to have some more available in the future. I never really thought of myself as a sculpture, but it is good to stretch and grow as an artist. At times we need to get out of our comfort zone, and try different art mediums and still maintain a consistant look of your art.

Fall Is In The Air

I have been working on different colors with my gift tags that will be in my shop soon. Fall is finally here so I am starting to get inspired about the leaves changing, the weather getting cooler, and soon Thanksgiving holiday will be just around the corner.

Screen Printing


Yesterday I was practicing screen printing on some fabric and a tote bag that I failed on miserably. This time I used my husbands clamps to make sure the screen was secure to the fabric and it worked! The result turned out much better than before. I am so excited! Yeah!! I will show you a finished piece after I perfect this better. I am using a Speedball kit that I purchased at my local craft store. There are so many ideas swirling in my head that I can't wait to try out.

Another Mischievous Bird

Here is another one of my fanciful birds that I wanted to show you. This little guy can be such a trouble maker, so please keep your eyes on him at all times!
