my first domino art

I finished my first domino art this afternoon. I am still not sure how I will hang it.

I tried my hand at making some beads

Chunky Beads

Chunky Beads

I am going to be doing some altered tiles and dominoes soon, and thought I would give a try at making some chunky beads to maybe go with them. This was my first attempt. I did not twist the ends well, and I think white coated wire would have shown up better than the back over the dark green leather.

altered art butterfly book

Below are the first of 10 pages I am making for an altered art butterfly book. Anything goes, as long as a butterfly was included on each page.

Yes, I am alive

Ok, I know it has been several weeks since I have posted anything but life happens.

I have just been wearing too many hats the past couple weeks, and it seems that that nothing is getting 100% from me.

Mom — good and bad
***Oldest son was home with some college buddies brewing ale with us. Brewing one weekend, and bottling the next. (all are 21 or over)
***Youngest son had a nasty virus that just would not go away. Yes when 15 year old boys are sick, they actually want their moms.
***Missing daughter, who is a long way from warm California at college in burr Wisconsin. I have been baking and sending care packages. I am doing my part to keep the postal service solvent.

Artist—well at least trying to be
I have been working on stuff, but most are project that are for trades. I will photo and post stuff when I actually finish. Unfortunately I have not had a lot of time to work.

Also, did the taxes, paid the bills, purging cupboards.

Just very busy!

Hope everyone has a great weekend — hopefully I will have something I can post in the next day or two.
