With weather like this I have a perfect excuse to paint, stamp and scrap. Working on the last of the she art girls and this one probably reflects an older me!!!
The photo is dark (sorry) but with this weather no amount of flash/ lights or drawn curtains was going to brighten up my little desk. I have really enjoyed the she art online workshop, mainly because Christy really does show you how to build backgrounds by layering and using different textures and stamps, paint, inks etc, etc. The girls themselves are "cookie cutter style" but their little blank faces do have appeal. I have never been able to draw (yet) so this suits me for now.
I'm off to check out Julia's woyww and be inspired and have a giggle.
god shit, girl. it is winding and raining like mad here right now.
ReplyDeletelike a LOT rain and wind.
i am hoping that my beloved manperson doesn't get whisked away in a storm while drilling our oil...

ReplyDeletethat was my word.
i don't really see a particular meaning in it.
do you?
Another great background! Some useful techniques there, I reckon.
ReplyDeleteHmmm, I'm not the only one slightly obssessed by the word verification thingy?
"imate" ? I'm your mate! That's good, eh? or add 'n' to make "inmate" which was actually my first thought! Hmmmm?
ReplyDeleteWe could do with some of your rain here....the garden is planted but it needs watering now.

I love your she-art ladies - really striking.
ReplyDeletegreat work, Happy WOYWW 99, Thank you for sharing your desk with us much appreciated it. A great desk. #31.
ReplyDeleteLove the she art work. Your work is wonderful.
ReplyDeleteThe answer to the question you left on my blog about what I was going to do with the cutouts is I'm not sure yet lol. Sometimes I have clear ideas for a project. This is a case of experimenting and finding uses later lol. Thanks for sharing and dropping by :D #45
I think the She art is coming along nicely. I wish I could find a class around here. Not as lucky if it isn't just cutesy and pretty to the masses. We are a little back woodsy in my part of Oklahoma and it takes longer for ideas to catch on! Thanks for sharing. Vickie aka okienurse #35
ReplyDeleteI like your she-art girl! Great piece...Happy WOYWW! Andria #121
ReplyDeleteAh, those She Art girls. I'm curretnly working on another one. I really like it, but like you said I also enjoyed VERY much to see how to build backgrounds. That is almost the most fun.
ReplyDeleteI really can not paint ...except splatters and blobs .... love the style you are using
ReplyDeleteLove your she art - been lovely here only had rain a night :) The only reason I am orgaised with Christmas cards is I do a couple of challenges each month so I dont have a big rush of panic in November lol
ReplyDeleteRunning very late here happy WOYWW - thanks for popping over! and do love your project there Sandra!! we are enjoying great sunny day here thankfully! family here.. Shaz in oz.x
ReplyDeleteYour art is beautiful and the background you created is fabulous. Hopefully your weather will improve... I rather have rain then the cold and snow that's out my window today in Colorado. Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteI have not been able to draw, but I did have a go while we were away at Easter, with mixed success, but I had fun trying. Keep going with what you do now, but take time to have a go at drawing too. Hope your weather improves soon.
