Here’s my latest mixed-media piece on an 8×8 gallery edge canvas. The cylindrical hanging bead is one of my handmade paper beads.
Thanks for looking!

This is a very powerful piece for me. I had no idea what I had in mind when I sat down to create today. I had this old canvas laying around that I had covered over an unattractive collage with gesso. I grabbed it and started playing. This piece just sort of evolved from things I had laying around. Maybe it was a release for me…we’ve had some ups and downs lately. Hopefully everything is on the right track again…
Just wanted to let everyone know about a great site giving away ephemera for the holiday season.
You can find it at here.
I made these late last night but was just too tired to get them posted.
I like these but not nearly as much as my first ones.
I’ve been saving bottlecaps for quite a while now…my neighbors and family even save them for me occasionally. Nice to have people like that even if they do think I’m odd.
I was inspired to make these bottlecap magnets aftering seeing a post about some Christmas ones on Ali Edwards blog.
I only had very thin sheet magnets at home so they aren’t really strong enough to hold up anything but themselves. Who said art had to be practical, right?!?
I have 16 more sitting taking up precious table space while the Crystal Lacquer dries. Next time …hopefully…I’ll remember to put them on a tray or something so I can move them outta my way!!
UPDATE: Here are the 15 that turned out…
Here is my postcard poking fun at the chaos of some peoples Christmas. I’m glad our family has the “keep it simple” policy. :)
The second one is giving a little jab to some of the clueless husbands out there. 
Glad mine isn’t one of them. Love you sweetie!
I put aside the sewing for this evening and this is what came of it. It’s a 5×5 inch gallery edge canvas. Fun size to work with. The crown is actually a shank button. I cut a hole in the canvas for the shank to poke through the back.
