Hello, March!

So it is the first day of March.  I am excited about the new CED theme, mixed media.  Wrote a few comments about it in the my blog dedicated this endeavor... 

Got a little side-tracked today...haven't decided the direction for the series yet, leaning towards starting with some small pieces, those 4x4 canvases were a good size for the pieces I created in February.  Then of course there are my random figurative pieces...it would be smart to just blend the two together, right?  And add in the next ANE theme...Edgar Allan Poe...lot's to think of...

Instead of officially starting my series...because I am still figuring it out...

I painted some wine glasses for a gift...and started a sketch. 


So, I was creative after all.  It is almost like I felt guilty for not knowing the next direction my work will take.  Ummm...so posting these pics made me feel a little better.

...rambling on...oh, yeah...it's Youth Art Month!!  Yay Art!  My 8th graders helped me set up a display and some YAM signnage this morning...this is in addition to the art that is already all over the school.  Wall = A place that needs my student's art!!  (display shown below)

Oh yes, just remembered to post the pics below, these are from the weekend.  I created some custom paintings for a friend's nursery.  They just sent the pics of the finished paintings back home in NC, displayed in the window.  I love those block canvases, you can hang them on the wall, stack them.  Very versatile.

...and they sent a pic of one of my owl paintings.  I changed the color of the tie to go with the colors in the nursery.  (left)

So...wow.  Talk about stream of consciousness. 
 
...and finally...side note, why can't I ever get to sleep before 11:30pm?  Just sayin'..

Okay...I have ceased making sense and having any structure...must...go...to...SLEEP!
