woyww and unfinished projects

5 unfinished projects at last count, not bad considering it has been a busy week and I still managed to start 5 projects.  On the left is my first draft from the She Art Workshop a bit too cute but the techniques are  interesting.  In the background a 12 x 12 canvas that I completed at Nat Kalbach's workshop on Monday night.  I still have to pick a photo for the blank spot and was thinking of adding the family pic.   Nat's workshop was great and again it was great working with gesso and learning something new.  Finally in the middle of my desk is the sulking background from last week.  Yes it is back and we are on speaking terms.

Have to hop over to Julia's blog to see what everyone else has been doing.  I feel like life is on fast forward thank goodness for the easter break.

  1. Hi Sandra, All of those projects look they have potential. The canvas will be great and I think the photo is probably a nice idea. The She Art is a bit cute but all the same it is rather appealing. Maybe you could add a bit of bling for a sort of magical, sparkly look? And I think the sulking background most certainly can turn into something good. Looking forward to a few days off. Maybe you can get them all finished over Easter.

  3. You are on a roll! I really like your SheArt picture! Yes it is cute but not overly cute. And both your backgrounds look great! I especially love the colours in the badly behaved one! There is hope for that mischief maker yet!

  5. I like the she art! It is cute but more of a rustic than cutesy cute. I have a bipolar artsy attitude...one day I am grunge and some times I can get really cute. Have a fun week finishing your projects. Thanks for sharing. Vickie #28
