      Everyday this month, only 11 days in, but I've made it important to show up to the studio daily, open and with all the supplies I need to create something new. Even if it's just a simple thing. There seems to be so many other things trying to pull me away that I'm making it a point, no matter what's going on I am going to find a way to do my art. :)

"Expectation" by Gustav Klimt

I did this rough drawing off of the painting "expectation" by Gustav Klimt. I will use these as the basis for a collage. I already have the art board ready. I'll sketch this figure on the board and then start the search for pretty paper and lots of sparkling gold pieces of paper from magazines, periodicals and books.

 I already found some gold!

Water Falls from Hands

Pumpkin Season-Collage

At times in the past month almost every part of the plumbing in our house was either backed up or leaking. Our terrible plumbing issues came to a head the night it started raining in my kitchen even through the ceiilng light. The kitchen was moved into the dining which is my studio. I covered and boxed up my current art projects to protect them from possible spills, food grease, the dust from the walls being broken to get to the pipes.

Despite it all I was able to get some collages done even though I could not spread out and make the messes I love to make when I work. Here is one I've been working on.

Tent City Neighborhoods #3

                           Going On Despite the Rubble

 

The 2010 earthquake in Haiti killed over 300,000 people and destroyed millions of homes. Tents and tarps were given to the citizens to make shelter. Almost three years later many still call a tent a home.

All over the world people are becoming refugees in their own land, they are displaced by war, famine and natural disasters.
