Art On 30th

iPhone Box Assemblage Art

This week I pulled a bunch of goodies out onto my art table.

70-day Challenge, Part 2

Half time check-in…

Remember that 70-day Van Gogh art challenge I started back in May?

Well, I’m 38 days in, and going strong! Here’s an update on my progress.

#31 "Stick" (assemblage)

Making Connections

Sometimes a simple purchase turns into a greater gain. 

I bought this antique cash register drawer at the Vintage Marketplace in Rainbow CA.

 from Michiyo at LilwoodsVintage. 

Art Journal = Art Journey

Keeping my resolution, in my own way.

Back at the beginning of the year, I took on the challenge of starting an art journal by making a collage every day of the year. 
(See my original post from January 7th here.)

I’m proud to say I have kept up with my goal. 

However, it has not turned out the way I expected!

What do you do with…

… all those empty boxes?

Tiny Box Assemblage!

I've started using my old iPhone boxes for assemblage art!

In with the New

New year coming, old year's through.

Lots to make and much to do!
Out with the old and in with the new.
A bright and Happy New Year to you!

My resolution for 2017 is

“To dream what I want to realize, and to realize what I dream.”

Wishing you the best of luck realizing your dreams 

in the coming year. 

Happy 2017!

A Wink and a Wish

        

 A wink of his eye and a twist of his head

Soon gave me to know I had nothing to dread.

He sprung to his sleigh, to his team gave a whistle,

And away they all flew, like the down of a thistle;

But I heard him exclaim, ere he drove out of sight…

Wishing you and yours the happiest of holidays!

Focal Point

Sometimes it's finding a unique item that inspires me to start assembling a piece.

In this case… a pair of antique opera glasses I found at a vintage market.

A relic from the past, this 1950's lucite lorgnette is a rare find. 

Junkology 101

…the place to find the one-of-a-kind vintage treasures 

featured in my assemblage art.

As we treasure hunters know, flea markets are one of the best sources for vintage goods of all stripes. 

One of my new faves in Southern California, is Driving Miz Daisy.

If you love vintage campers and bargains on the best vintage finds, 
you've got to check out Driving Miz Daisy! 

A Solid Foundation

Getting to the Bottom of it!

I build my assemblage pieces on all sorts of bases, substrates, and foundations.
