9/30/2024 0 Comments Let's try this again.... This is the bowl I used modge podge to create.
It didn't go well - very pliable so I put white glue over it and decided to wait awhile. It's still pliable and sagging so I came up with a solution. I boiled the S**T out of it, then separated the glue from the glass. Now I'm ready to remake it - with only white glue this time. I have learned that modge podge is not the product for this work in the humid climate I live in. #seaglassbowls #seaglassartist #seaglassartwork #seaglasscollector #myrockpaperart

9/27/2024 0 Comments Blue tile wall art.... Finally found a use for all these similar type of tiles that I keep picking up on the beach. They all have a pattern on them that look like water drops. I was getting quite a collection of them and I had yet to find a use the them. Problem solved and a nice piece of art created. Blue tile heart wall art. Made to fit an 8x10 shadow box frame. #beachtiles #tileart #beachtileartist #beachtileartwork #myrockpaperart #bluetileheart #blueheart  Oops! This glass came apart as I was washing it this morning. After a second or two I realized the bottom would make a great base for a small sea glass tree and the top is a great form for creating larger, hollow trees. I'll sand the sharp edges and keep these on hand for future use. #recycle #reuse #greatideas #myrockpaperart #getcreative 9/25/2024 0 Comments Green beach tile artwork.... Anyone looking for a green piece of heart artwork? Using up some of the bigger green pieces of tile I've picked up on my beach walks. Made for an 8x10 shadow box frame. #beachtiles #tileart #beachtileartist #beachtileartwork #myrockpaperart 9/24/2024 0 Comments Shark Bite cocktail.... Well this piece really came together in an odd way. My original thought was to have a piece of glass - like the bottom of a bottle - that I could use to make an aquarium - so fish were definitely in my mind from the beginning. Then I found this big piece of glass that I thought would be a perfect cocktail glass which just completely distracted me from my original plan. Then I got to wondering if there was a cocktail with a fish name. A quick search found me a Shark Bite Cocktail so I thought it would be really fun to put the recipe as part of my piece of art. I went looking online because I definitely needed something to reference for my shark drawing because you know there's never been a reason for me to draw a shark before - another first. #seaglass #seaglassart #seaglassartist #seaglassartwork #myrockpaperart #sharkbitecocktail  Continuing to use some of the bigger pieces of sea glass and tiles that I have picked up on my beach walks. This time it's a couple enjoying the evening sunset. Anyone recognize the view? It's a rough rendition of what our bay looks like. This is the piece that I was thinking to have an acrylic painted background but I opted to use my pencil crayons instead to give a lighter background. Made to fit an 8x10 shadow box frame. #seaglass #seaglassart #seaglassartist #seaglassartwork #myrockpaperart 9/22/2024 0 Comments Wall art time....

Here I go again! I'm trying to paint with acrylic which I've never done before.
I looked online for a couple of ideas for sunsets and I'm just trying it out to see. I have a piece of sea glass art that I want to do with a couple sitting on a bench with a palm tree overlooking a sunset. That's why I'm trying to figure out how to paint an acrylic sunset so this is a practice piece. #paint #acrylicpainting #sunset #myrockpaperart #oceansunset 9/22/2024 0 Comments Sea glass bowls.... I have a nice little selection of sea glass bowls to display at the fall market. This will be the first time I am presenting them with my display so I'm interested to see how they will be received. These are great little trinket bowls - use them to hold your rings; put them in your guest bathroom with personal sized toiletries in them; have it by your entrance door to keep your keys in; by the entrance door with coins to tip the delivery person. Lots of ways to use them. . #seaglassbowls #seaglassartist #seaglassartwork #seaglasscollector #myrockpaperart 9/21/2024 0 Comments Sea glass wall art....
Working on a piece of sea glass wall art. I make my pieces to fit an 8 x 10 shadow box frame. I've often been asked why I don't frame my pieces and I have a few reasons for that. The most important reason, in my opinion, is that the frame has to suit the persons decor. If it doesn't they probably won't buy the piece. Another reason is that where I live there is nowhere close to me where I can go and personally select frames - I live in a little fishing village in Mexico. So I would have to order them online through Amazon. The third reason is that by offering my work unframed it keeps my costs down. It enables the person taking the art to find the perfect frame to suit their decor and the piece of art at the same time. #seaglass #seaglassart #seaglassartist #seaglassartwork #myrockpaperart |
