Art Every Day






For Day 3 and 4 in Art Every Day Month

Background made on 4 x 6 canvas board.
I'm trying to use up supplies I have around the house.
I have no idea why I bought the 4 x 6 canvas boards.
They come in a pack of three and so far, I've found two packs.

I applied a *sort of* thick layer of gesso and then stamped into the gesso leaving an imprint.
Fluid acrylics added and rubbed with a baby wipe.


Background: AEDM Day 3

Day 4

I did some more stamping.
More Golden Fluid Acrylics including gold.
More rubbing.
Added lady (she is from a woodblock print by Hokusai).
I love her glasses.
Added the bird.

Lady 2

Lady #2
(I feel a series coming on!)

More information about AEDM can be found here.

Wishing all of YOU well and much joy!

Good Morning!

Oh let us cast dull care away
Again be children for a day
Witches, Goblins have their sway
Tis Hallowe'en, let's joke and play

Happy Owloween!






Halloween is just around the corner and
 I'm celebrating potion (tea) making Owl style!


Owloween!



Happy Owloween!


I found the owl teapot and cups and saucers at Macy's -- on sale!
Yippee!
The pattern is Edle Rose by Rachel Bilson Dinnerware, Owl Teapot
I don't believe the butterflies on the saucers have a true function other than being cute!
I'm careful how I handle and store them. 



Boo!

I'm joining:


Nancy for Tuesday Muse 

 and some lovely tea parties:



Wishing all of you well, much joy and a wonderful cup of tea!

Happy Owloween!
