Welcome To My Art Giveaway

In celebration of my new artwork I am offering my
First Giveaway.
Recently I have been experimenting with collage. As you can see, I use any piece that I can find in my small art "junk" box.
I have always enjoyed drawing fish. This interest goes back to when I was a child.
In elementary school, I loved looking at all of the colors and shapes to be found under the sea. I have tried to capture some of those images here.
This collage is 5x7, mounted on foamcore and has a picture hanger on the back.
I plan on creating more collages for my Etsy store soon.
Please make a comment and follow me on my blog.
The drawing will take place on Sunday the 18th of March.
Thank you for stopping by and good luck!!

Under The Sea

A little bit of this...
And a little bit of that...
Add it all together and you'll get this!

My latest art creation; a mixed-medium collage.
I decided to produce something different then anything I have done before.
I have been in an art-block lately. After going through countless art magazines, books and design websites to get inspired I think I have finally come out of my art-slump.
To creates this piece I used silk flowers and plastic flower stems, liquid watercolors, watercolor paper, paper towel, foam core, glue, & pen and ink.

I am very happy with how the final piece turned out...
You know, it's funny... I had originally started with something
different andunhappy with that I ripped it all apart.
It wasn't until after I saw the ripped pieces on the floor that I realized my inspiration.

What do you think?! Have you ever had an art-block?

Craft/Art Show


Here is an example of my table layout at one of the many craft/art shows that I partake in. My tables are always full of the items that I make.
