NoteCARD Original Art - Send it or FRAME it !!!
















CHECK OUT these new Notecards ! I am phasing out my other items on Etsy, so I can concentrate on making this a Notecard/Print shop. I can turn any of my Original Paintings into Printed cards, which have a little white border, perfect for framing ! High quality inks will last a really long time, so Buyers can display these Original Artworks for many years, or send AS a gift - no Card needed. These are just a few of the offerings, so check out my Etsy store (link in margin). They are SOOOO reasonably priced, so take several - the Holidays are a'comin' !!!
My hubby had to make a new template to print these cards. He was like 'NOOO problem little lassie.' He didnt say lassie but I was at the Irish Festival over the weekend. But then it WAS a bit of a problem and he had to sit there working on it for like ever. He works on computers all day so I know he was hating it. He finally got it to work, half an ink cartridge later. Well, so I thought.......
When I went to print the cards myself, ka-blewie. It wouldnt even let me in the document. It was like viewable only, not editable. SO, I had to call hunny-bunches-of-oats out of the bedroom where he was watching 'The Day After Tomorrow' again, and He had to print all of my cards out. Well, alot of them anyways. Then he proclaimed this was the last one for today, so I will have to weasel him into doing it again for me REALLY SOON. But He doesnt know HOW Soon !! Hee hee hee ..........!

DRAGONfly Mixed Media COLLage 'FLYING DREAM'







I have had the Dream of Flying only 2 times. Maybe 3. And I dream ALOT. Vividly. In long 'Movies'. Sometime I have like premonitions i guess. And sometimes i dream of things that happened recently, but i had no knowledge of them at the time. I will tell my Mom about them, and She will sometimes tell me about something that just happened which she hadnt thought to tell me about yet. Once i dreamed about a cyber-pal who lives in San Franscisco. I dreamed I was at a Store or Restaurant she owned. Her husband and mine were there too. Business was great, the store was really rustic, lots of wood fixtures, and people were buying like souvenirs and gift-y items. It was So Fun. When I told her about it she said 'That was my Store near Haight/Ashbury back in the 60's'. Gave us both chills... She's such a hippie too. Still!
Anyway, if you ever have a Flying Dream, you are very lucky. They are rare.
This effort on Canvas (for a change) is representative of my Flying Dream. Paper bags make the wings, sprayed with water and crumpled. Dried Rose petals from my personal collection, paper confetti, hand cut, glass beads, stars and a small butterfly print of my Original Art is mounted on Stained Glass and added to the piece. The Dragonfly is made of Pearl Paper Clay. Acrylics are used for the first layer. Semi-gloss sealer spray is used in several coats to make the wings hard and secure all the stuff onto the canvas. I bought the silvery charm at a craft store, and was glad to have it this morning for this Artwork!
I REALLY APPRECIATE YOUR COMMENTS on my Artwork. Follow this blog and I get FREE Signed Prints of any of my Artwork on the blog!

This is my Enchanted Fairy Cottage

An Enchanted Fairy Cottage ! Tall paper mache form, a total blast to transform into a Magical House ! I can really feel that this home would be just right in a bed of Thyme or Mint, or deep in the Woods of a Dark, Thick Forest. This is where I would live if I were a Fairy. WERE ???!!

Yummy.

I'm gonna make a few more of these I think.

here are s'more pics of this fairy girl painting


This cute fairy girl is ready for her new Home !
Moroccan Red, which has a touch of orange, is paired with yellow ochre and a kind of transparent black, and the result is almost an old-fashioned Renaissance feel. I really love the look of carved flowers in the painting. Oh, BTW the size is ... hold on i gotta get my measuring tape......OK. 18"x24". Thats nice and generous for a striking, Original Wall Hanging. Show your Pals you support Outsider Art, specifically MINE !! :)
