ART SOOTHES MY SOUL 

July 17, 2016 

Hello there, dear readers!

The sun is shining; we just saw our grandson marching and playing in his BURLINGTON TEEN TOURING BAND in LeRoy, New York; the sheetrock is going up to make the walls inside our new home...life is good. I hope things are going well for you, where you are, as well.

I so enjoyed putting together the following pieces of challenge art this week...

SUNDAY POSTCARD ART was in the summer mode declaring its theme to be PICNIC...

DIGITALMANIA asked challenge participants to create art in the style of one Maria Pace Wynters , a mixed media artist.

Here is one of hers...

and here's my creation using her technique...

That's it for this moment in time...short and sweet. I'm working on another that I'll post when completed. Meanwhile, enjoy your evening and weekend.

Thanks for stopping in.

Sending hugs and love to you all,

FINALLY...SOME ART  

JULY 13, 2016 

Hi Dear Readers,
Hope you've been enjoying your days and weeks... we're in the middle of an exceptionally hot, rainless summer and a great deal of our green has turned brown. I wonder how it is where YOU are?????

Have been missing making art so I got back to it a bit this week...a little break from going through our rooms and throwing out or packing, getting ready for our new house.

DEZINAWORLD15, a fun art "cheeky challenge" blog, has asked for a piece of art depicting a MAGIC theme... to me, reading a book is a magical experience because it transports you to another place.

DIGITAL WHISPER declared its theme to be TOPTOE... a unique call...

 Finally, SUNDAY POSTCARD ART called for a typical summer beach scene with seashells...

I've been missing doing art on a daily basis...must try to get back to it. It's my relaxation and brain challenge...both, good for the soul!!

Enjoy your days...and thanks for stopping by.

Big Hugs,
abbyj
