STILL MAKING ART

Feeling the need to do some artwork recently drove me to these two journal pages. I will never tire of working with images of woman, using vintage pages, napkins, scraps, and fibers. This piece I used some paint, vintage newspaper, a pretty image of a woman,  napkins,  butterfly image, gesso, and a couple secrets thrown in!  Actually, every time I start one I never really know how they will turn out, and that is what makes them so much fun and so relaxing to me!




This piece I used an original page from an old flea market book I found, a beautiful book, but my feeling is if you can't use it for something, what good is it, so I do tear out pages and use originals, they are so beautiful. I enjoyed stitching around the page in my haphazard way, and I will not bore you with all that it means to me, what matters is what you see and what it means to you! 



I am always thrilled that you took the time to stop by and leave a comment, thank you so much!

Yes.......love your stamping and finishes. I agree about the bead shows. Just got back from one in Sarastoa and wish I had bought more.

I made sea glass jewelry and so many natural stones compliment sea glass.
