My trees are growing....

Picture


I started working on these four trees on October 23rd. They’ve been slowly progressing along.  I think I will have the one in the front right finished today. It only needs maybe four more layers to it and then it should be done. The other ones have quite a few more layers yet to go but it’s all progressing. Some trees just grow faster than others LOL.

A fisherman wall art....




​A fun piece of wall art for the people who love fishing.
My fisherman doesn't seem to be getting any bites.

Made to fit 8x10 shadow box frame.

Another bowl, different shape....

​Working on another bowl using a different shape this time. I'm also using up some of the gray pieces of glass and some of the chunky pieces that I don't have other uses for.

These bowls are great "trinket" bowls - maybe for your rings or the house keys or just those little things you want to keep handy. Or even just as a show piece! ​

Making good use of all my glass....

Picture


Working on a sea glass bowl.

The wood plugs are in place for the building of this bowl. Once it's dried I will replace the plugs with marbles that I have picked up on the beach. This is the only use I've found, so far, for all the marbles I've been collecting.

An art creation slideshow....







Pretty purple flowers created by coloring the backside of clear sea glass just to make things "POP".

​Another colorful piece of wall art.

Where flowers bloom....

I love coloring the back of the clear sea glass with my markers. It creates such a pop of color and gives a good use for clear glass that would normally not be very prominent.

I really like this quote. I've done it many times on greeting cards but today I decided to use some of my bigger pieces of glass to create it as wall art.

​Made to fit 8x10 shadow box frame.

Hmmm sea shells and glass....

Picture





​It's a sea glass card kind of day.

But I have a lot of shells out as well. I'm looking for pieces that could be turtle or crab shells. Or maybe just some little shells that could be sitting on a beach??

Let's see what transpires.

Birds and a crab....

Picture

A couple fun sea glass cards with birds and a crab. 

A good use for the little shells I find. The shell used for the crab is a new idea. I usually use that shape for a turtle shell but this worked out nicely as well. A little pastel coloring for the background, some hand drawn legs for the crab and it's done.

Sea glass and water color....

Picture




It's a different type of art day today.

​After I removed the sea glass bowl from its form and then inserted the marbles I moved on to starting some water color bookmarks.

Rebuilding my blue marble bowl....

Picture



Started the reconstruction of the Blue Marble bowl that I had taken apart because it was too soft when I used the modge podge.

Tomorrow I will remove the little wooden pegs that are in it and glue the marbles in.

    Who knew there was an artist lurking within? Certainly not me.

    It started with my Mom giving me some paints that she wasn’t using but I never did anything with them because “I wasn’t artistic” - according to myself. We really need to learn to have a kinder inner voice because I have discovered that apparently I am artistic.
     
    In early 2018 I was introduced to an artist on Instagram ​from Australia who makes the most beautiful art. I looked at it and was truly inspired. I thought how hard can it be to put dots on some rocks. I had never felt that I was artistic at all but this woman has changed me forever! So I began and since that time I have started following even more rock artists to inspire me.

    In late 2019 my sister in law introduced me to another Instagram person who creates coloring books. Drawing is another thing I said I could never do but thanks to the inspiration I am receiving from this woman and through various social media sources I have discovered that I actually can draw.
     
    So the lesson is....you never really know what you are capable of until you actually try it! Never say never, I can’t etc. to yourself. Obviously I have to change my words and thoughts from - "I'm not artistic" and "I can't draw" to.....
    ​"Cool something new! Let's give it a try and see where it goes!" And now when people ask me what I do I say - I am an Artist!
     
    I look forward to expanding my creativity. Thank you for your interest and support.
