Painters Block BreakThrough


Hi Bloggers!

I hope everyone has been having a creative New Year so far. While anticipating snow that never came, I decided to try and finish this piece that I'd titled Painters Block. I started it in Oct .. but put it aside when I'd reached an impasse.

I decided to paint the final face on the corner, I felt that it would somehow add dimension ... and while I'm not so sure I'm finished with the piece, I feel as if I'm close.

I'm going back and forth right now as to whether to leave her bald, or add hair using the same technique as I did with the corkboard project.

So while the smidgen of snow we got last night has already melted, I at least accomplished a little something!LOL

Bringing In The New Year Creatively


I decided to stick to my pre-new year promise to myself, and be as creative as I could. I needed something REALLY big that I could sink my teeth into ... and I spotted a spare cork board that I'd brought home from work before the holidays. This is what I worked on all day yesterday and into the New Year early this morning. I made it for work ... the mini white board is actually an extra ceramic tile. The days of the week are Scribbles glitter words.
