They used to be dolls in the making but....

I made thse great little doll faces out of polymer clay years and years ago. They were going to be a set of old dolls. Well, that never happened. Decided to make an assemblage. The saying is "Live -- you are only old once."

Collages and mini-project

This little picture was used in my fancy bedroom miniature scene. It is less than 2 x 3 inches.

It was the perfect picture for my fancy bedroom scene.

Here it is in its original size (8 1/2 x 11). This piece was done in 2009 This piece was done to accompany it. I want to shrink it down for an art gallery scene I have rumbling around in my brain.

I love collage. It is fun using all those interesting pictures/scenes/sayings that I don't want to toss out.

One person's junk....

This is such a mismash of stuff that I don't know where to start. Wine and cheese tray is a Christmas ornament tht I got at a yard sale for 50 cents. The box, I found in a field while walking my dogs. The little base (just a tip of the blue showing) is part of a lamp that bit the dust. Just an invitations 'come for drinks'. Bon Apetit

Playing with food

I was inspired by an article in a craft/art magazine (don't remember just which one now, but it was either Cloth,Paper, Scissors or Sommerset Studio) that said it was okay to play with your food. I love inspirational sayings. Here is my faux pear with a rusty pear inside. Shutter displays the inspiration : "Life is not a race - do take it slower. hear the music before the song is over"

Don't you want to be Organized????

I just love my stuff and like it better when I can have it out and not tucked away in drawers, boxes, and other containers. In this piece you will see some of my favorite things I call "Organize". Each collection of things is one more in quantity. Starting with one Monopoly Card to 12 mini candy bars. This is just the tip of the iceberg, so you might see more collections

Ghosts and Ghouls

With inspiration from a couple of magazines (Cloth,Paper, Scissors and Sommerset Studios) I decided I had to make some new Halloween decorations. Quick, Cute and seasonal.

Found Objects - nautical

Sometimes things just come together. The little guy was from a souvenir a bought years ago. The base is part of a lamp. The block was just in my stash. Some of the other pieces were from a birdhouse that collapsed. All in all - it looks like it belongs together.
