PLAYTIME: CHALLENGE ART

NEW THEMES...May 30, 2011 

I'm so happy to be back creating art for challenges issued by a variety of blogs... blogs designed JUST to invite artists to do their best work around a theme. Here are my latest:

THINK MONDAY-THINK ATC asked that we do something with a map...

These garden sprites or winged things will work for the challenges of two blogs...4X4 FRIDAY and TAKE A WORD...

The art above also involves WINGS...for either of the aforementioned blogs...

INSPIRATION AVENUE requested an "Over the Rainbow" piece and finally, THE CRAZY AMIGOS declared their theme to be simply...CHAIRS... and one final piece with a theme of my own choosing...SOUL SISTER!!

  

Thanks so much for checking in...hope to see you soon again!

XOX,

ART ON VACATION...

CHALLENGES IN FLORIDA 
March 1, 2011

Happy March First! With the beginning of March come promises of Spring... of gentler weather and the melting of snow (revealing patches of green from a previous season.) But in Central New York, promises are made to be broken and that inevitable white blanket remains...reminding us who's still in charge!!  What an awesome director we have in Mother Nature!! 

Undaunted (and STILL loving that white blanket,) I happily plod on, creating art pieces for challenges issued to artists on a variety of blogs...on a variety of subjects. Here are some of my latest... 

The challenge issued by 4X4 FRIDAY is to create a piece based on a "tiny fairy."

ART CREATIONS FRIDAY's challenge is to create art using this sweet "SORE LOSER."

"EXOTIC" is the word for TAKE A WORD MONDAY  and my friend from the DATOGA TRIBE in Tanzania, Africa provided the perfect face!

THE THREE MUSES invited participating artists to introduce bloggers to one of their ancestors...well, here she is...her name is Jessie!

THINK MONDAY-THINK ATC wanted our muses to create an underwater scene...Since my husband and daughter are scuba divers, I found my muse in them and their gorgeous photos of colorful coral and sweet turtles...I enjoyed playing with a few of their photos.

SUNDAY POSTCARD ART wants to do a "DOUBLE TAKE" on our art this week...hope this does it for them!!

WHEW! That's it for a little while...I need to rearrange my sock drawer. Please stop by again as I love your visits!   XOX, abbyj
