Leslie shared with us a great way to make a collage. You can do it too! So easy, just visit http://www.picmonkey.com/. You can choose the layout, and how many photos to add, and then you can type a message, change colors and all of that. I tried to put my name on it, but It did not save. It’s late and I am ready for bed. That’s my story and I am sticking to it.
See more artist collage’s, and take a last look at all the great art that was created in Leslie Saeta’s September Art Challenge.
I started packing today for my stay in Escondido. Still debating about taking my scanner. I am sort of addicted to my scanner. I started a 12 x 12 canvas. Laid in a sky and ocean. Not sure yet where it is going, but it’s a beginning.
My painting today is a 4 x 6 postcard, for the Milliande’s Art Community for Women, Birthday Postcard exchange I am a part of. It is watercolor on card stock. ( I recycled some blank cards I had by turning them inside out.)
Sadly, I received word today that the site is going to be gone soon. Milliande will be continuing some of the groups. And I am hoping that my group will decide to carry on together, at least until the end of the year. My birthday is in January, and I received such gorgeous cards. I will continue to send them for the remaining birthdays no matter what happens.
Keeping it short today, trying to meet a submission deadline – wish me luck. 🙂
Watercolor on cardstock
I got a wild hair, and I am prepping some canvas panels for Leslie Saeta’s September 30 in 30 challenge. I was going to do all watercolor, but I am going to switch it up. I came across a really cool color combo. And it is calling to me. Turquoise, sand, a little coffee and cream, touch of navy. Perfect day at the beach.
We are not having one of those days today though. It feels like I am in the deep south, so hot and muggy. And we’ve got clouds in the Inland Empire. BELIEVE IT OR NOT. BIG, DARK, ominous clouds. So far no rain, and …it is getting brighter, but right above the house is a dark cloud. So I am wishing for rain. Crossing my fingers and my toes.
Rain, rain, come and play,
Blue sky can come back some other day!
