Paper Stacks

Seth Apter has come up with another project for bloggers to see-Paper Stacks.
It goes live on wed. He will link up all the participants (70+) for you to peruse.  This image is a stack of journals-including the "big ass pink and black" one on the bottom (and yes, that is the name i gave it when i made it for artfest one year)

 

 I decided to add more pictures to this post after seeing the first 20 participants.  Originally didn't want to "clog up" this post since we have lots to go look at-but i like seeing all the other photo's that others have posted that I decided "why not?"  So you can look at some of my book collections-I keep saying I don't need anymore-but then I see one I can't resist :)  Thanks for stopping by-i try to answer all comments, but in case I don't-do know that i read and appreciate them all!

Art Day

Sunday was my art group's meeting.  We made these adorable little stuffed kitties compliments

of Traci Mine isn't quite finished, but will look similar to this one (her sample) She sells these and other stuffies on etsy and local art fairs.

We Did It!!

By it, i mean broke the record of 1980~officially now have had 70 days of 100 degrees or higher.
Today  to break that record we had a balmy 107!
We Texans are tough like that...

10 Years Later...We Will Never Forget

Many words have been written and spoken about this day-A day that changed us all. 10 years later we still cry when we see the footage.  Today as we see the images again and the memorials, we remember  And we will never forget...

Halloween Images

Couldn't Pass up on Passing this on :)

women are Angels.
And when someone breaks our wings,
we simply continue to fly....on a broomstick.
We are flexible like that

Playing with Oil and Wax

Decided to try playing around with acrylics/then oil paint over it.
Today i added the wax.  Not thrilled w/the the image, but figure if i heat
her again, i'll mess it up worse.  So for now, this is how it will stay.
