Grace's macro shot |
Seems life gets lived out in stages, much like our art. Enthusiastic beginnings, mired middles, and uncertain endings. Rather reminds me of English class, beginnings, middles and endings. Well I've finished
'Rhapsody' (waiting to get some good photos) have begun the map work for a new piece and am playing in my art journal in-between.

Lyvia's macro shot |
My grand-daughters had a taste of doing art in stages as well. They wanted to do something like I had created with
'Reef', and it was the first time they have had to wait for things to dry/cure before moving on to the next stage, meaning they had to leave them for several days in-between processes. By the time we got to the end they were pretty anxious to get the paint dried and the high sheen varnish on! Grace really enjoyed getting 'into' the flow of adding various colours to the mix where as Lyvia, our little live wire, slapped on paint in a frenzy of colour and enthusiasm . Interesting, isn't it how our personalities are reflected so eloquently in art making.

Grace & Lyvia would have fun hamming it up with ibooth once we finished a stage in their art pieces. Behind them is one side of the loft that I use mostly for Art Journaling and collage, across the room is the painting gallery :-)
