Having a Play!

Every month I get together with a wonderful friend and we play! We try out different art techniques and media and  get our creative juices flowing.

Yesterday we got out two books by Mary Todd Beam, Celebrate Your Creative Self and The Creative Edge. I was lucky enough to go to one of her week long workshops at Arrowmont School of Arts and Crafts in Tennessee about 4 years ago. It was great to get out her books and try out some the excercises. It brought back some wonderful memories.

Here are a couple of experiments that I tried yesterday:

I Dreamt I was a Dragonfly

9" x 7" Acrylic on Mat Board

Under the Mountain
