Artist Trading Cards


Playing around with some artist trading cards tonight for the first time in a long time. Now who to send them to? If anyone wants to exchange shoot me an email junoart1@gmail.com. :) 

Climate Crisis

Textile paint and marker, 17.75” x 18.5”
Unsure if this one is complete yet. There is more that I’d like to add at some point. This piece addresses several environmental effects of climate change as well as the human contribution in the matter.

Taking a break from the 2020 Women’s Vote piece to start this piece about climate control and our natural environment.
 Rub a Dub marker, Jacquard textile paints 
Painting is done...now to heat set and sandwich the quilt.

Puzzling

I’ve started another of Lucky’s drawing classes (Susan Shie). The theme for this assignment was “Puzzling” and the repeating shapes of tessellations, but I also wanted to have it develop from the blank page to black & white to color over the texture of printing.

The Beginning...

Thumbnail of idea



I’m forever sorting through the studio. Tonight led me to start a piece on the pin wall. I will post progress pics as I work. Love and light and all the good stuff.

Update...

She still has a long way to go...


Progress!

Altered Book Day
Gouache, ink, colored pencil, gel pen.

Playing in an altered book has unique qualities. There is no fear of the blank page. Seeing hints of text peeking through gives to a bit of pattern and texture. Altered book work is a place to experiment and see what is possible. I find myself layering upon layer with different media every time I turn a new page. It really is a fun way to practice and to get my brain in the right mindset. Find an old discard and give it a try!
In going through the studio attempting to organize and see what is there I came across some work that had significant meaning. Finding old artworks is like finding old friends.

Making Drawing A Habit

I've started another Lucky Drawing class - by the artist Susan Shie. It has general guidelines so that students have the freedom to work, but enough guidance to get you there. So far I've been pretty self critical about these. All part of the process of getting where I need to go.

Self Portrait. Colored pencil, Sharpie, gel pen & ball point.



Watercolor, ink.
