...another week has passed

Got a chance to do a bit of art this week....

the stone angel spread was inspired by a couple of stone angel statues that stand near where my mom is buried at Holy Cross Cemetary...here in Milwaukee...they stood out from the many many photos i took because they both were missing a hand and then that inspired me to write the prose that i included on the spread...




this gothic arch was inspired bye a tangle of brightly colored fibers that somehow in a way expressed tangled emotions that bind love and art to the world...which i wrote a bit of poetry for the rear of the arch...





And here is a new swap i'm just beginning to participate in at mixed media madams...

this house page is for Sandee she is going to bind her book pages into an art street!
I used vintage envelopes for the base and then added my photo from when i was about 7 years old to the windows...holding onto my little white patent purse that i have inscribed on it "Art $"




These next pages are for Heather Holst...here theme is Mary Mary quite contrary...
I used vintage flower book pages and vintage seed packets and created a base...




and if you remember back a bit when i had the honor of going to my daughter's bf's ultrasound and they determined that they were having a little girl...well....

may i introduce...

LILLIAN ELISABETH!





We all got little goodies for her and I made a diaper cake with the goodies!
