I love doing abstracts and have recently found a new joy in drawing the human figure, so I thought why not combine the two with a little humor….

Never met a flower I didn’t like…..Can’t say that about everything.
Productive morning, now it is time to actually go work in my yard. I plant lots and lots of Tulips. I don’t plant Dahlias, as they seem too much work. But I do love to enjoy other people’s Dahlias.
Watch which door you open…
When we were traveling in Italy I curiously saw older men sitting and talking and wondered what they envisioned as important in life or in the next life
Eat Ice Cream
Let me just say first, that I really do LOVE men and have a wonderful husband. I took the photo of these women in Volterra, Italy and they just seemed to be having the best time together. While in Paris I bought a post-card with this man silhouetted walking away. The photo of the castle seemed magical to me. The women seemed to not have a care in the world, so it just fell together.

Love the idea on this but did not like how in the original some of the transfer was a little cloudy. This is great fun to do and watch art dvds while you are playing/working.
Thinking about developing card series using these and putting them on small blocks. Kind of sharing my sense of humor and view on life.
Would love to shear what you think.

Coffee in Paris
My best friend and I have been friends for over thirty years. We have sons, the same ages, a daughter and son within two weeks of each other and two younger children. Then she had a wonderful surprise and her twins are also my God Sons.
I thought of her when I put this together, thinking we should have coffee in Paris some day before we are too old to enjoy it. Alexandra this is for you!!

Eat Ice Cream
What a fun weekend taking a collage class with a lot of fun women. Never done any of this before and Kat DeBose was a great teacher. I used a lot of photos from my travels and decided rather than approach it as an art form to use it as a way to express satire.
Note in this one, the man is walking on water, or so he thinks and women enjoying their Ice Cream say to one another “Let him go”.
Tell me what you think of the idea! Might make a fun series of cards?
