New Crow Collage

At least I think it is a crow, the photo I drew it from did not say and it seems a bit small and does not have a curved enough beak to be a raven, but I love crows too :-). It is titled "Crow Contemplating", 10"x 10", again not a lick of paint, just paper and rust stains and micro sepia and black pens and cold wax on cradle board.
This one was labor intensive, and a labor of love. I included detail and side views, double click to see more detail. I always love to here your thoughts. XOXO
P.S I am tumbling this image for those that like to tumble :-).

Treasure!

I found some treasure this weekend while on my hikes with Bella, Rust love, once it takes hold there is no stopping it :-). Not sure what I will do with all of it, but I think some will be used for rust mark making and some will be  for collage and painting.

Having fun and feeling inspired, I hope you are too.

This is the last week for my ETSY sale, 10% off all items. If you have not been to my site for a while there are quiet a few new pieces, and I still have a few ceramic pieces left.

Have a wonderful week! XOXO

More Drawings, and a Few Small Paintings and Some Good News!

I have been busy :-). I have much more to show, but will save them for another post, I don't want to overwhelm you. The first images are all tea bag and rust drawings, various sizes. The paintings are 4" with 2" sides, like little cubes. I had so much fun doing all these pieces I hope it shows. They will all be making their way to my ETSY site in the next week, but if you see something you like let me know and I will reserve it in your name in my shop. The prices range from $20- $49. I always love your comments.
I have loads of good news: We have had no thunder for almost a week! Bella is very relaxed :-).
I sold some of my drawings! Thank you Barbara! And last, I was selected in the Tao's selects juried show, they can only pick 2 from the three submitted and they picked the root painting and the red bowl. Whoo hoo!
I am off to paint. Have a wonderful weekend everyone! XOXO

Now for Something Completely Different

Remember when I was stuck and stalled with my paintings? I did these drawings during that time.

A friend gave me some 7"x6" paper and I let some rust and tea do some work on them, then I had all these tea bags and decided to do some little drawings on them and put the two together. I also had a dream that I drew on bones, I find a lot of them when I hike, I tried a little drawing on one and liked it, so I will be doing more. All of these pieces will be going into my ETSY shop in the next week, where I am still having a 30% off sale. I always love your comments. Happy weekend! XOXO
