as I mentioned in a previous post, I'm participating in
Marit's
Summer Camp.
today, inspired by a piece she did of birds on a wire,
an episode of Portlandia, (cracks me up every time!) (btw - I have been in the shops on Mississippi Avenue in Portland! LOL!!!)
and the camp prompts,
I created an avian triptych : .)
ever since I purchased my condo,
I've used a lot of birds and feathers
in my art and in my decor.
nesting, I guess!
I also experimented with blowing bubbles in ink
to make background paper.
note to self:
do this outdoors, in a deep pan, wearing hazmat gear.
I am covered in ink.
I am so glad it was non-toxic and water soluble
because I got it everywhere,
on my hands, face, clothes, the floor, the counter, the stainless steel sink,
yes, even in my mouth, yuck!!!
I love this background paper from Fancy Pants...
its called "Spring Fever".
that's a Donna Downey stamp.
I just decided on the perfect picture to scrap here.
that's all I got accomplished today,
aside from dishes, laundry, and a nap to overcome some nausea.
hum...
I went to the Greek Festival on Friday with Vicki & family.
o.m.g!!! we ate sooo much fuds!
it was crazy crowded, but the eats were worth
the claustrophobia & the cognitive dissonance.
pastitsio, calamari, spanikopita & loukoumades!
I brought home some baklava & kourambiethes.
awesome!
I wanna go back tomorrow!
