It's that time again - another weekly round up of Art Every Day Month. And I am sad that there is only one more after this.
Although I did something everyday this week, I only managed a few posts + share them with you.
The weather has changed here, and temps are over 30 degrees (that's celsius my American friends!)
It is hot. A dry, energy sapping heat, that I am struggling with + that has brought out with whiny bitch in me. (And I will stop now, I promise!)
So here is how I spent my second to last AEDM week...
Sunday saw us returning from Canberra, after a whirlwind over night visit, where we spent time with my sister + her family + went to the Justine Clarke concert, which my children just adored!
Once we were home + the terrible two were in bed I started what would become 'Stars + Butterflies'...
DAY 18 |
Day 20 + I started Hearts All a Flutter
On Day 21 I did something.... but I forgot to take a photo + I can't for the life of me remember what it was. Maybe I did the back ground for Girl with the Dragon Mask....
All I know is that I didn't finish Hearts All A Flutter until the next day...
HEARTS ALL A FLUTTER - SOLD |
Day 23 - I painted Girl with the Dragon Mask for my nieces birthday. She is four, so although I have heard she liked it, she much preferred the noisy fairy camera we got for here instead. I know that one day she will appreciate it, so I am not offended....(much!!)
GIRL WITH THE DRAGON MASK |
Yesterday I dug out my major works from my last year of school. (Gah - that was so cringe-worthy! + I promise that I will share those photos soon.) But I have a project in mind for the end of AEDM that would be a perfect reuse of those old paintings.
So I covered the original in sheet music.
RE-USING AN OLD PAINTING FOR NEW |
I also began a new back ground for a little painting, while I was waiting for the glue to dry on this one. I love the colours in this background + I got to play with a new stamp that I indulged in when I went to the art shop in Canberra.
Today, I took it easy again, it is hot + sticky in my studio, so I abandoned it after an hour, and retreated to lying under the fans upstairs.
Also don't forget:
* LilliBean Designs (my etsy store) has 10% until the end of the month - most of my paintings from AEDM are up for sale now.
* Have you considered join me on my very first Christmas Tag Swap? Click here for more details
