My Artistic Heart

Here are some pictures of a journal I am working on.  I took a class with Kim Geiser and the book I used was too thick and the pages too thin, so I took it apart and redid it.  It was given at Art-Is-You and I added all my trades to the side of the book.   I am adding lots more stuff, the only problem is that the book will not close, but I will be tying it with ribbon and can do that loosely. I still have a long way to go but I am glad I started my Journal Journey.

Here I am standing next to my piece that is now in the Gallery.  It is on it's own wall!  This is just a preview.  The closing reception takes place January 4 and hopefully someone will buy it.  I didn't win any ribbons but hey, at least I got into a Gallery.  Hope you enjoy!

Hi everyone, Here I am again with some exciting news.   It has been a while since I blogged since I have been so busy making art. First, I will be having a piece shown in the Art League Jeanie Tengelsen Gallery. It is a piece of all my handmade jewelry that I put together into one big collage.  I am very excited about this as it is a large gallery and I attend classes there as well.  This is a juried show and there will be ribbons given out and an opening reception and a closing reception. Second, The Half Hollow Hills Library in Dix Hills has agreed to let    me put all my pieces in their gallery.  It is downstairs and I have the whole area to myself.  I am very busy making collages to hang there as well.  Here is one picture that is going in the library as well as others I am presently working on. I will post pictures of the others as I make them. The most exciting thing that can ever happen to me is I applied for a one-artist show at the Huntington Arts Council Gallery in Hunting
