Keeping the creative momentum.

Oh my, time seems to have slipped through my fingers again and now it's almost the end of August and I haven't posted here since June. How does that happen even in this strange time of isolation when I have no classes or creative studio and so much time at home on my own. However it happens I am sorry for not post more here. I won't promise that I will do more but I will do my best to do better. I have the best of intentions and so many ideas to share with you. Well we will see...

The theme for July on Dragonfly Dreamers monthly exploration group was Cards. I had intended to do many different kind of cards but I ended up just doing some affirmation cards and ATC's. They were all done with layers of collage, paints and pens. I start off by doing a full sheet of collage and painting and then I cut them to the size I want before finishing them of with some mark making and doodling the back with an affirmation or quote.

These ATC's all got traded with people from the group.

These affirmation cards are 4.5"x3". I think of the left side as the front and the right side as the back but both are finished pieces on their own. I have quite a collection of these cards now and like to shuffle through them and choose one each day for a daily affirmation.

I hope you are keeping creating.

July Collage a Day Challenge- week 2

There is a reason these things are called challenges. What started off seeming like an easy projects has gotten a little trickier this week. The first weeks collages were pretty easy and fairly fast to do. This week they have become more of a challenge and seem to be taking a little more time. So now I'm doing a little research to learn more about collage art and get inspiration. I am still enjoying the challenge though and am even thinking about a possible August challenge!!

Day 8- Lost and found

Day 9- Five

Day 10- Parking

Day 11- Chinese tea

Day 12- Ledger

Day 13- Take a bread in the shade

Day 14- Serenity 

Have you done any collages yet? I have a few people over on the facebook group that have shares some of theirs. Come over and take a look and/or share yours. I can really use your inspiration to keep going.

Keep Creating! Wendy

 Have you been playing along? If you have come on over to our facebook group to share some of your collages. Or just come over to take a look at some of the other group members creations. I'm getting some of my inspiration from other members to keep me going. You don't need to do one everyday if you don't want. Just do one whenever you get a chance and share to help keep the rest of us going til the end of the month.

Happy Creating!
