Purple ATC for yahoo SWAP



This is the hardest challenge I have had in a while, since purple and I do not see eye to eye, however I caught the expression of what I feel purple is.......... a hazy passion. I am exhausted from my purple adventure and am in a purple haze. (it is easier for me to use purple in a sentance than to create with it!).

Tonight I actually created my little wood nymph..or as I like to call her monday's muse. She was in my head as I sat out in my backyard admiring the beauty God had given me this evening and she had to be created. Alas three hours later that is all I have gotten done tonight. But how creative is doing the laundry after all~! Praise God for the muse He sends! She is created on a 4 x2.5 hard board

even started on a board book. As you see, sprout

Today I will relax in the arms of my "Father" God and remember as His child I am accepted.
Another fine evening here on the Island, the rain has come and gone and left cool breezes in the air, even the girls can enjoy the sea air at the screen door. Tonight is the night I shall attempt to create, perhaps using the cool colors of summer...we shall see what happens! Later......

Today it is raining and creating a temporary fog on creativity in our house, even sophie is exhausted from hunting her muse. Perhaps tomorrow we shall find it.Also posted a pic of some dominos that were created in the fall for a show..they were made using staz on pad and alcohol inks.The alcohol inks were applied with a very small brush a bit at a time.

I am back on track

 It has been quite a few years of hit and miss as I create. I am determined this year to stay on track.  Have joined several art classes. An...
