Art day

Yesterday was an art day for me. Some of us black bird crazy folks at atcsforall.com held a one day Black bird a-thon yesterday and there was some incredible art created. I spent the day playing with beeswax and tissue prints....

  

And in the middle of the day, our monthly art group met and shared what was going on in our lives, art wise and other wise.
Hubby was fine with a quick chicken and rice dinner which I cooked too long so it was a bit dried out (note to self: set timer next time I'm cooking when a-thoning) and letting me sit at the art table and computer while I "played" in the a-thon all day and night. I heart him. :)

Second Place!

I just found out I was second place winner in a monthly Artist Trading Card contest on atcsforall.com. The theme was Layers. I created this by layering torn papers and tissues with matte medium, stamping images, painting lines and dots, tinting with re-inker, layering a napkin image of a black bird (I think it's a starling...eek!) and blending all together with beeswax.
