Something new coming.....

Back to the art table - do you think I have enough pens?

I am working on a series of art work to be used for a line of bookmarkers I am creating. Lots of flowers, feathers and insects. I will be sharing them with you later this week.

The end of a project

Well, I have finally reached the end of the journal project. Kinda sad to see it end. It was a fun time and I can now look forward to my next endeavor.

This is a layout of the finished pages, but only shows the one side of each page.

It took a little thinking as to how to bind the book, I finally settled on suede laces and pony beads. I gave an additional texture and feel to the viewer when handling the book.

This is just one quick peek as to what the inside looks like.

Another day

Well I hope everybody is having a good Valentine’s Day out there. We are always keeping busy. I managed to get out another magazine submission yesterday and had to stop and pick up some more art supplies. I need to get some more drawing done, and have to get back to my wool art quilts. The journal project is almost done, I am working on the project description right now and the binding of the book.

Getting the brads put into the book pages

The final coating of the pages of the journal

 My son-in-law has not seen this project yet - he is so proud of his restored tractor. I wonder what he will say when he sees what I did to it.
