#4 I'm a Little Tea Pot

I had sketched out a bunch of silly ideas in one of my sketchbooks... And because I was procrastinating with packing, I HAD to flip through a couple of them. (Sketchbooks are a great source of inspiration....they are my idea magnets.) hehehehe.

#3 Spruce

#3 Spruce  Watercolor and pencil

I'm packing the studio to move it downstate... I really have a lot of art books.... REALLY a lot.

#2 Washington DC

#2 in my challenge... Love quilts... and doodles. Watercolor and ink on card-stock. Frivolous fun.

year long challenge begins today....

I've been in the midst of a studio move... Waiting on plumbers and electricians, and I have one more BIG load to pack and move. I decided I was whining about it entirely too much. I'd rather make art...so that's what I'm doing. And to keep me motivated, I've decided to challenge myself to the following:
1. 6 works per week (not necessarily daily...6 in one day works too)
2. 5x7 size
3. any medium or subject
4. begin on Dec. 1, 2012 and continue for a year (minimum)
ta daa!

Mr. Party Pants and friends....

I had some of the small collage paintings printed as post cards.... My friend Greta, at Maxwell's on Main (327 Main St)  in Frankfort, MI, offered to sell them in her shop. I ordered just a few of each, since I had no idea if they would sell or not... Guess who had to re-order last week. Yes... it was me! Mr. Party Pants seems to be the favored postcard so far. :)

For some reason it's extra beautiful this year.
