Assemble - Assemble - Assemble

I love old light bulbs and save way too many, but here is the use of one.   Who doesn't have bright ideas.   

Numbers.  With my background in Finance and my husband as a tax preparer  - we have lots of numbers in our life.   Assembled in an old wooden 'in' box.   

I love old pictures.  I love the saving.   It says  "Don't expect anyone to support you.   Maybe you have a trust fund.   Maybe you have a wealthy spouse.   But you never know when either one might run out."  

I hope you enjoy my assembled items.

I love making things out of things most would throw away.   These are my latest adventures.

Rick Worth's Boot Camp - House

My friend Michelle was unable to go to Rick Worth's class yesterday afternoon and offered the place to me.   I jumped at the opportunity.   We did a house.   It was so much fun.   Hope you enjoy it.  

I met my Sorority Sister, Anita, there and she captured this picture of me.   What fun we had.  

March Bootcamp with Rick Worth comes to an end

Yesterday was the last Tuesday in March and also the last class that I had signed up to take with Rick Worth. It has been a fun month and the last class was very taxing. Lots to do in the 2 1/2 hours but it appears we all left with a finished painting.

I Love Clowns

I love clowns and have had some I wanted to use. These cute little boxes come from Factory Direct Crafts. They have a plexiglas cover. The construction isn't real good - but the boxes are cheap and 'clean up nice'. The bottom box has the cover on, so there is some glare. It was a fun project that allowed me to show off some of my little clowns. Have a happy day.

Rick Worth Times 3

I attended my 3rd Rick Worth Boot Camp this month.. My Friend Michelle wanted to do flowers - so we did. We did frangipani flowers. I don't do flowers much and wasn't much more impressed with them than the pelican of last week, but all-in-all they turned out pretty good. I really need some wall space so I can put these painting out in my house.

More Rick Worth

Tuesday afternoon I participated in my second Rick Worth class this month. We did a pelican. Now I think the pelican is probably one of the ugliest birds out there. They land in our canal occasionally and they land with a hugh flop into the water. I'm always amazed that they don't hurt themselves. I don't know that I would have ever painted a pelican without it being the subject of the class, but glad I did it when it was done.

Another Rick Worth Class

I love my palm tree - shows movement.

Yesterday I attended the first of 4 classes with Rick Worth (and 30 others). I thought the month of March would be great to devote 4 Tuesdays to learning a bit more about painting with house paint. I've taken a couple of his classes, but have never devoted 4 straight weeks and I think I will really enjoy this. Also taking it with my friend Michele, http://www.thegypsypalace.blogspot.com/ , and that is certainly fun.

Everyone goes home with a finished painting in 2 1/2 hours. Really fun!
