New Collage

I added beeswax at the bottom right of this collage.

Back of my art box.

I collaged on my supply box that I keep drawing supplies in. This is the back side.

Bird Nest

I took a photo of a nest a bird had built and drew it out. I added a stamp to enhance it. I love adding rubber stamps to my art.

Another carved stamp

Frame Work

I bought this frame at a garage sale and added gold and olive green rub-on then burned designs in it.

Collage

Close up of a collage class I took at Art & Soul with Ann Baldwin.

Hmm, got a long, long way to go before I do this up right. Gotta start somewhere.

First Attempt

First attempt at stamp carving. Hmmmm, got a long way to go before I master this art.

Fish

I am going to try to do this in fabric pieces. Not sure how that will come out.

Fish Drawing

Clown with bird hat

I used this face on a fabric page RR I was in.

Drawing of stamp images

I think these will be cool in a daily journal to jot notes on the lines.

My granddaughter created the page on the right side for me as a gift.

This is the cover of my absolute most favorite book I've ever made. Unfortunately, it was sent as a proposal for a class and never made it home.

Collage using fabric and paper elements.

Paste paper.

Art paper. My hope is that when my journals are purchased, these pages will be written on.

Art papers in one of my journals.

This is my favorite art journal.

Circus Dreams

I love this book. This is a prototype but I hope to start another one soon and work out the mistakes.

New Collage

This is a new collage I did using my new favorite line of stamps, CharacterConstructions.com I love this new line of rubber stamps, very artsy.

This is some of the pages I worked up.

I love, love, love this book. It is spiral coil bound with lots of neat pages inside.

The spine has charms and beads attached to a metal chain.

The back has a oriental mermaid stamped on it.

This journal is thin metal covering heavy bookboard. The word JOURNAL is dimensional and the front and back have stamp art. The pages are white watercolor paper for art and journaling.

Journal

This journal also has embellished watercolor papers for you to do art or journal on. It has a three dimensional butterfly on the right hand corner and clip art glass slide under the butterfly. The front is embellished with charms and the spine is coptic stitch so the book will lay flat.

New Journal

This is one of my new journals. It has embellished watercolor papers for doing art or journaling on. I love the face. I have "Her life" spelled randomly on the front. The spine has beautiful fiber and bead embellishments.

I LOVE this journal. Every art element I love is visible in this journal. If this had been the only class I took at Art&Soul, it would have been worth the trip.

This is the back and spine of my metal journal that I made in Thomas and Romona Ashman's class at Art&Soul.

This is the beret I altered for Art & Soul. I love the face stamp and use it often in my art.

I love this piece. She will be for sale at Vendor's Night at ArtFiberFest. It does not show up but she holds a journal that I made under one arm and the bicycle handle in the other hand. The back of her jacket has a fish that I scanned onto canvas cloth and sewed onto her jacket.

Fiber Art Page

This did not show any of my detail work but it is fragments of fabric that is attached to a background and held with metallic thread. The face is then attached to the inside of the frame and a layer of batting is added. I could not get a good image of the back fabric I used. It is swirls of orange. Now I have to go in and add sequins and embellishments. Lots of work? OH Yeah!

This is something ya gotta love or it is waaaay to involved. She will eventually be a fiber art book.

This is a photo of my Art Satchel. I love this bag. It is spacious and the front closures stay closed with a strong velcro.

I tried to get a good close up of the art work on the straps but this camera is not my best friend.

This will be up on my website.
