Since I found my creative groove a couple of months ago, I've been all over the place. And I've got the piles of mess to prove it. Sewing in the basement and on the kitchen table, bits of yarn surrounding my television watching chair, easel and paints beside the window downstairs, cutting board and quilt scraps on the dining room table, scrapbook stuff all over my craft area downstairs...see...all over the place.
I thought you might like a peek at some Artist Trading Cards I made recently to swap.
This woman is drawn on top of a old calendar that I cut up. I like the effect given by seeing the illustration through my artwork. Mixed Media.
This one is of Frida Kahlo and I named it, "She Wore a Tattoo of Pain."
Mixed media.
Frida and Diego. Colored Pencils.
Sharing a bite to eat. Acrylic paint.
I hope you enjoyed the glimpse into my messy, messy world.
Keep 'em coming! Love the look of the images coming through underneath your work.
ReplyDeleteThese are just wonderful. The faces are amazing but I have a soft spot for giraffes and that one just steals my heart.
ReplyDeleteWonderful .. the first two remind me a bit of Clive Barker's drawings ... so glad you got your groove goin'!

thank you so much for sharing some of your artwork. I love mixed media - it's so forgiving. I am in a funk right now, myself. I have 4 paintings in my studio (aka: basement) that I cannot seem to finish. I lack motivation. Maybe I can catch some here!
ReplyDeleteI love the fact that you create on everything. Yes love how the images come through. Messes are good! You should see my studio and house mess. LOL
ReplyDeleteExcellent work!!
ReplyDeleteI love them all but the giraffes are particularly amazing!
ReplyDeleteThey are all great, but that giraffe! I think he might lick me if I get too close!
ReplyDeleteYou really are so talented Stevie!
ReplyDeleteStevie you have such a creative soul. I love the faces you paint. Especially the animal faces. Those giraffes are spectacular.
ReplyDeleteMessy but creative!
ReplyDeleteMesses are great...bits and pieces of this and that are the sparks that ignite us!
ReplyDeleteLovely! I recognized Frida immediately! Sounds like you're having lots of fun! I'm sure you aren't missing those collection calls! LOL!
ReplyDeleteThey are all truly beautiful.;) Still my favorite is the last one, there is something very sweet about that drawing.;)

Love your work! Hope you make big bucks off of some of it. Art is all about making messes! The messier the better, the more creative the juices.
