"Summer's Day"

I just finished this 16x20 painting on watercolor paper using image transfer, collage, rubber stamping and acrylic painting. I'm trying to get some artwork together for my art league's annual art show in September. I hope to enter these last two. Need to get them framed now.

New artwork

I got the idea for this from an article by Misty Mawn in Cloth, Paper, Scissors July/August issue.I did an image transfer of parts of a Davinci painting then painted over it with acrylics. Its on a 12x16 canvas board. No title yet.

new pin project

I got the idea for these on artizine, So cute. I made this one from an vintage button,aged copper and clip art.

I need to get busy and do some paintings. the Fireland area Art league art show is coming up in September. I would like to have 5 pieces of art to enter. I could enter some photos and jewelry also.

My hubby,Don, and I went to Medina,Ohio, Sunday, to "Art in the park". They had some really beautiful art on display. It was very crowded and it looked like people were buying too.

Here is a closer view of some of the houses.

The "angel" with the maple seed wings is my Mom.

Her are some photos of the projects I have been working on using beeswax as the final coating.I paint the roof then adhere papers for the background and add scanned photos and other embellishments on the houses. I used large puzzle pieces and made wall hangings and small puzzle pieces for earrings.

Beeswax collage on large puzzle piece

My whole house smells like beeswax(and thats not a bad thing). I've been making anything I can think of using beeswax to sell at a local apiary gift shop. I've been doing greeting cards,little wooden houses and collaging on large puzzle pieces. Its been fun.

reworked last painting

I haven't posted for a while. Been working on some beeswax collage cards and little wooden houses for a local Apiary and gift shop.

I reworked the last painting and like it better now. I posted it on the wet canvas website and took their advice as to what might be done to improve it so here it is. Hope you like it. Please let me know what you think.
