welcome and thank you 

for visiting today.  i will start with

a teabag painting.   so far i have 

painted and drawn almost 250 of

these little canvases.  i have enjoyed 

each one as well as the community of

artists on instagram who have 

responded warmly to them.

i am continuing with the little

collage faces still using the 

one magazine.  i did cheat a little on

this one.  i just couldn't help using 

a bit of the japanese paper.

i enjoyed looking through an old

journal in the style that i no longer use;

acrylic background with collage on top

and writing a journal entry.  i liked it 

so much when i looked at it that i am going

to make another one and do this same 

process that worked so well for me for 

many years.  

one of my art groups invited artist

vadim zanginian to do a demonstration,

i was fascinated by his process.

this is an example of his work.

i had to leave a little early so did not see the 

completed work but i liked what i saw 

already.  he got this far in less than a half hour!

i took this picture at sunset this week. 

i was surprised at the stunning vista when i 

saw it in my phone.
