My second assemblage ever. I’m such a newbie at this, but I enjoyed the process and hmm.. the result too actually. Even though so many of you seem to think I’m deranged… And I don’t mind! I look at these two assemblages with dolls (they are not barbies but much smaller) and I might agree, […]

Adulthood | a try at assemblage
ASSEMBLAGE An artistic process in which a three-dimensional artistic composition is made from putting together found objects. Assemblage is the three-dimensional cousin of collage.

Pink feathers
Always, always, always stop and snap a photo when you see something that makes you happy. Like pink Easter feathers in town.

Only a couple of days of work practice left here, then I’m heading home for this: Black India Ink, new pens, crayons and more bits and pieces of paper from Sweet Pea Kate, darling girl, who wanted a craft material trade ages ago and NOW finally sent something my way! So fun I want to […]

A Chunky Book page
I singed up for Joleens project Vintage Valentine, a chunky book where 40 artists contributed with 40 pages each. Joleen got them all and sorted them out, bound them together with a big fat spiral binding. This is how I made my page, the first chunky book page ever, or hmm… the 40 first ones! […]

In a previous post I showed you these little guys in our window, a photo taken through the curtain a sunny morning. And no, the are not little house elves. They are snow people that mom sewed for me. Mom is a great artist. She will sell her quilts, bags and crafts in our mutual […]
I want a kitty of my own
Studio Friday theme is eyes this Friday. What you are “all eyes on” right now? I’m seeing, reading, thinking, surfing, reading, searching – for my cat. Where is he? I haven’t found him yet. I haven’t meet him yet. So I’m still all eyes. All I crave right now seems to be a kitten to […]
