Juneau Artists Gallery web site

Okay, I'm on the Juneau Artists Gallery web site now!

I still need to upload pix of the bldg, the storefront, and my wall. stay tuned (tho' it will be a week or so!)

misc pieces

here's a 2x6 bookmark i made (front a paint sample strip) for a tree-themed bookmark swap; a butterfly postcard;altered clothespins; and an altered envelope for swaps.

some more work

here are the front + backs of pages i made for an inchie journal swap. each page must feature an inchie, text, and some work with markers. mine are simple, but i think they turned out fun.

a few minutes...

Okay, I have a few minutes free so I'm going to upload as many of my new pieces as I can....

A month or so ago, Teesha Moore made some great videos on how she makes her awesome journals. I'm in a round-robin swap with 7 other people wherein we'll work on pages in each others' journals. Ours are smaller than Teesha's; we made ours 5x6. So we are all responsible for our own front + back covers, as well as the artists' sign-in page (as well as a few other pages). So here are my front + back covers + the sign-in page. (Page 9 with be a JAM page wherein all artists will contribute.)

out of the loop

I'm sorry I've been out of the blog loop. It's due to health issues, but please stay posted. I do have a lot to share which I'll do asap. Thanks for your patience!

Juneau Artists Gallery

As some of you, after going through an elaborate 3-step process, I was notified Wednesday night that I was accepted into Juneau Artists Gallery (JAG). It's a juried venue, so of course I was nervous about having my work judged by peers, but it all turned out. I'll be moving my art into the gallery this coming Sunday!

In the meantime, here are a couple of more pages I made for the ongoing nature journal swap I'm in. These are for Karin.

altered envies

I've been playing around with altered envelopes. I altered one plain white envie; and I made the other envie out of a decorative shopping bag. These are way fun to make! I know there are a few black marks on the white envie, but once I put on an address, they'll be covered up!
