No Art Today

Fiona in her Halloween costume Thing 2 Had to take my precious little Fiona to the Vet today. It could be a UTI or something else. She had Xrays that did not show anything and is spending the night at the VET- her first night away from home. She is to have an Ultra Sound in the morning. Prayers and good thoughts please.

My VOTE Counts!

Today I voted. It is the first time that my husband and I went to our polling place together and sat side by side as we voted. I guess our area does not warrant machines with curtains? I hope you made the choice to go VOTE today too. I will wait eagerly on the results now.

Still Life at the Barn

Today I participated in the ART BARN still life. When I arrived this is what they were painting. I did not have enough time to finish my painting so posting my work in progress. I have not painted this type of still life in a many years. Acrylic on canvas The last two nights I worked on this folklike painting of cats. I am sharing it only as process. It did not turn out like anything in my mind. I am not really happy with it, but that is part of the process.

DAY 4 at the Art Barn

A few pictures of trees in Cecil, AL

A few more photos from today-

These photos are my last attempt at Landscapes- Encaustic and Oil Stick on Wood Panels made in the last three months currently on display at The Gallery Prattville Creative Arts Center, Prattville, AL

AED DAY 3 Football in the SOUTH

As you know I am on a little journey to create Art Every Day and Blog about it here. I am taking part in the group challenge you can read more about it here or see other artist links http://creativeeveryday.com/ Today we spent time at the football field and I thought how am I going to get in my creativity today! I had taken the camera along in case we came upon anything exciting as we went to a different town. This is what I got and not sure if my husband or I took the second photo. I worked with the camera trying to get a flag in the air photo.

Paper quilt art from day 2. Who knows where the next journey will lead. I am to go to an Art Barn gathering on Sunday!

Day of the Dead- ART day 2

In honor of the Day of the Dead, today I painted this picture. My thoughts were of Mother Teresa and this is what came out. I also did another small paper quilt piece today. Today I realized I must set up a photo area in the house. This picture is much brighter than the photo taken on my phone. Acrylic and pen on paper

Art Every Day Month DAY1

Charcoal drawings using photos from magazine adds I just completed a 5 week figure drawing class. I thought I would practice some figure drawing last night and today. I will try to post every few days of my progress in my Art Every Day journey. I really have not mapped out what I am doing each day so just letting the mood hit me.
