Swaps

I have decided to enter a few swaps. I've done this for several reasons:
1) To share my art with others
2) To receive pieces of the artwork of others that do different things than me
3) To try different types of art techniques

Things with wings

I finished my mixed media piece.

"To Fly Beyond Time"

Thank you book

I used some of the items I received in my happy mail to make a little booklet. I made a thank you tag and will be sending these to the lady that sent me the happy mail.

small journals

Yesterday I made some small journals while watching my nephews. I plan to use these to see how different supplies and techniques work.

Tag

I have been playing around with some mixed media techniques and making different stuff. I created this tag and finished it this morning.

New supplies

I purchased some stencils, a crop-a-dile power punch and some chalk pastels.

New blog update

Hello, I am still working on getting this blog likeable and user friendly for me and all of you. I have added some sites I like to visit that either give me visual delight, inspiration or both.

Second Blog

I am starting a second blog for more of my art/mixed media/journal type stuff. I don't know how long this blog will be in existence or how well I will be at keeping it updated. This is just an experiment.

I went to my local Blick store today and purchased a few new things. I bought a 9x12 Canson XL Mix Media book and got a 5.5x8.5 book for free. I also purchased 2 new Derwent Inktense pencils (Dark Aquamarine, Dark Chocolate), 2 Prismacolor/premiere pencils (Burnt Ochre, Sienna Brown), a Micron 01 pink pen, some cheapy brushes, some Tombow Mono liquid glue, and some Utrecht white gesso.
