The Crazy Artist In Me

I did not want to loose the momentum of my learning experience at ArtFest so I have been making a really big mess and just a little art. I made a run to all my local thrift stores the and found some fantastic stuff. Threw 20 plastic bags of "stuff" in the garage and ran back to my studio table.

I find it challenging to be a 'thinking-doing' artist. I do art all day at work on the computer as quickly as I can think of it. I have been sitting at my table, trying to do something 'by hand' and it is tough. Wish me luck, I have a few more days of vacation left to get the many lessons I learned to imprint in my brain while I am making my pieces. I thought if I made several more, the knowledge might lodge there somewhere. D is helping me brainstorm about my superman piece. I found this wonderful carved box I am using in another. I added the copper wire curtain to the piece I made in class. And finally another butterfly one. Mostly done now.
