The Way Things Really Are ~~~~~ and a Peek at Works in Progress

For sure, you will not be seeing my "studio" in any of the magazines. Yes, I would love it to be bigger and brighter with all of my supplies tucked away in neat little beautiful boxes and shelves. But, this is what I have and this is what I will be so grateful for.


It is tucked in a room in the basement so at least I do not have to concern myself with it being in order all of the time.

Here are some pics of work in progress. I just know that I want to use these images in a piece, but have to wait until the rest comes to me.
When I create a collage, I never do it all in one sitting. The last pic shows two 4 by 6 mat boards that I first covered with a piece of music and a sheet from an old children's encyclopedia. I chose two images that I wanted to be the focus of the piece and glued those down. This was done last night and they still sit there. Ideas will usually come to me as I wait and I cannot seem to rush the process.



The last pic is a great hardback children's book I got for a dime that will be my next glue book. I have already torn out or cut out about half of the pages. This one will be dedicated totally to children. Anybody want to make one along with me?

Just Jump Right In!

No, I cannot swim, but why not just plunge in to this blogging life anyway? After all, I DO LIVE with the perfect rescuer who can jump in and save me!

Life is short and I feel the need to leave my mark somehow.

More to come soon, of a creative, artful nature...........................
