Poppies Collage

 


This is something completely different!   In my Wednesday Studio class, with Ellen Cornett as teacher, we made flower collages.   It was great fun.  Ellen provided us with papers that had been painted in various colors and patterns.  Most of the students cut out flowers, but I decided the poppies needed tearing to honor their jagged petals.  This is my result.  I did use pen for the black part.

Here's a picture of how it looked when all the collages were hung on the bulletin board:

Glimpse Through the Rocks

 


Wow!  It has been awhile since I posted on this blog....I used to do it frequently, but seem to have paused that effort.  Well, here is something new. It  is a view through rocks at the California coast of a little beach with some driftwood, more rocks  and the air above the ocean beyond.   I did it for an upcoming show at a local gallery "Frame of Mine" that  will have an opening reception on February 14.  The theme of the show is "Landscapes."
