Puppets and Cards

Puppet work has resumed! These will be making their debut at the Memorial Day Parade in Perrysburg, Ohio before returning to Point Place for our parade.

And I was attempting to clear my work table but got distracted making cards from some good scraps. I'm hoping Beeker's General Store needs a few more. 

Three Self Portraits

 

And now, I'm tired of looking at my own face. 

First Selfie Done!

I started three self portraits on three 11" by 14" stretched canvases. First one has been declared finished.

Self Portraits

 When it came time to draw faces, I thought I'd step out of my comfort zone and attempt self portraits.

Dots and Stripes

Patterns! Right up my alley! Love dots and stripes! 

March Fodder School

Spent some time scraping paint around to create some "Reads as Solid" colored papers. Now I have to watch more Dori Patrick lessons for the really fun parts! 

Phew, I'm Finally Making Stuff Again!

After nonstop baking throughout the holidays, I hit a creative lapse that dragged on way too long. The last thing I made was before Christmas, a gift for our great niece. I "fixed up" her first school picture.

 

Today, after weeks of procrastination, I spent a few hours messing around with my gelliplate...nothing earth shattering but some usable fodder.

 

Later, when rolling the trash bin to the curb, I found a gorgeous piece of wasp nest. I couldn't just throw it away so I made a little box for it.
