It's been awhile since I've been here. I had knee replacement surgery in June, had a few set-backs with it and am just now feeling energized enough to collage and blog.
But some of my art has been out and about. I was delighted to learn that both of my 'gothic' pieces in the Shenandoah Valley Art Center members show sold! WooHoo.

There was another great group show at SVAC, which I'm sorry I didn't let you know about at the time. The concept was art based on local landmarks and landscapes. The project used an interesting device, in which artists chose from a list of locations. 50 in all. I chose a wonderful home on Cherry Avenue and went with that 'Cherrified' inspiration in a big way. Literal can be fun! A book of the show was produced as well.
A few favorites ~

Art took a back seat while recuperating,. I did do a couple birthday cards, but it was just recently that I had the energy and ability to stay at my computer, to do a collage. Came across this image of the new line of Millennial Barbies - and their Kens - and off I went. I do like the retro baker accenting the hipsters. A bit of fun. Eclairs and donuts too!

So glad you were able to meet the Muse while you recuperated!
ReplyDeleteIs that tower thing for ice? I've tromped about beneath that thing and always wondered.
ReplyDeleteHave you thought about putting your collages on bags or leggings?
