I finished I Moleskine art journal I've been working in for years -here are the last few pages.
I am looking forward to starting a new one I got for my birthday from my friend Linda.

a swirl of ideas....
still loving playing with pattern and zentangles, stirred in a few teesha moore videos and some cool magazines from greg
et voila
my new passion ~ Zentangles
My new issue of Cloth Paper Scissors came the other day and in it was an article on Zentangles by Sandy Bartholomew it just resonated for me since I have been playing with patterns for weeks now. I love the black and white graphic quality of them, but being a color freak I also had to mix them up with some color too...Try it -you might have fun!
Notes on how to create a Zentangle and some vocabulary

Saturday
Mixed Media Art Challenge
I joined a fun scavenger hunt over at
Mixed Media Art on Ning
You
had to find some things for
yourself, send some things to someone else
and a third person would send things to you.

The things to send and receive were buttons, fiber and paper. Jean sent me hand made enameled buttons, hand dyed ribbon and some very cool resin treated paper and a photo image. She sent a beautiful flower, but I ended up using a mermaid...
I had to find for myself:
Something from nature (shell, wood, botanica, etc.)
Something rusty
Something wire (a piece of rusty copper wire, chicken wire, barbed wire)
Something made of glass
Out of all this came my mermaid assemblage...
Thursday
Happy October to all
Well it's a marvelous night for a Moondance'neath the cover of October skies...
The weather has turned brisk and crisp, October always reminds me of this song...
I was so excited when I got an email yesterday to get pre-sale tickets to see Van Morrison at the Meyerhoff in Baltimore on October 27th.
I was online right at 10AM this morning and all the $82 tickets were already gone - there were only $122 seats -so with tax and fees it would have been $576 for four of us to attend -I had to pass... now I feel sad and disappointed but fiscally responsible.
Somedays I hate being a grown-up!
I'm consoling myself listening to Astral Weeks...

Tuesday
Oh jeez, it's been three weeks
Still struggling to get my act together...
Going to New York for the day tomorrow, get to spend all day Thursday in training for work.
Planning to drink Martini's afterwork on Friday after a frantic day of catching up with what I'll miss Wednesday and Thursday....
Saturday and Sunday really need to include some studio time for my sanity!
I hope to have some great stuff to share next week.
In the mean time this is one of my Soul Collage Committee cards called "The Ostrich"
