Having a Blast

Spent much of today working on art! Here are the latest pieces, followed by cards I’ve received recently. I got a little wild with the monoprints, inspired by Kathie M. from Colorado (see below). I even found my old little plexiglas plate from when I took printmaking in about 1987.

Neon Jungle (fabric, acrylic stamped figures)

Divine Revelation (monoprint background, colored pencil) After doing the background I could “see” Moses, streaming light, and the crowd, so I drew in the figure.

Puzzle (monoprint background, marker puzzle lines)

Metamorphosis is Messy (acrylic monoprint background, collaged critters)

Frankenflower (acrylic monoprint background, collaged flower in marker)

This monoprint from Kathie M. in Colorado inspired me to do the monoprints above.

A collage from Linda G. in Massachusetts. This cracks me up.

Another greeting from Catherine in Shropshire.

From Honi in N.Y., the only taste of fall we get in Central Texas.

Swap Cards Received

Finally managed to register successfully for the informal swap. I’ve sent several, including one to South Africa, and recently received three. Although I’m still busy with a deadline project for my husband’s theater company, I plan to keep making and sending cards as often as possible.

Next: an update on my recent work.

Dyed and stitched fabric from April in Florida

Stamped collage from Cheryl in Virginia

Last, a card, an envelope that is a work of art, and a really cool art tag from Honi in New York state.
