Thanks for taking your time to look at my blog.
I would like to share with you six hand-painted mini-canvases on 30″ chains. My friend Faye is quite the expert jewelry designer– thanks friend for your good eye and taking your time to match each painted canvas with the perfect colored beads. My hubby got in the action too- he mixed and poured the sealing epoxy that adds a beautiful shine to each one.
The last part of the hand painted jewelry was to decorate the backs–so I painted, stamped and wrote a special word on each one. No two necklaces are alike…. truly special treasures!
Happy Mother’s Day!
Juicy alcohol inks-Tuesday’s Treasure Chest
Posted in Art, Tuesday's Treasure Chest, tagged Alcohol ink, ceramic tiles, flower, landscape on May 7, 2013| 7 Comments »
Happy Tuesday everyone! I have a brand new color love going on–ALCOHOL inks!!! They are so much fun and easy to drip, drop and stamp abstract designs on ceramic tiles.
It was easy to create spontaneous designs but I wondered could I create a more recognizable form with these color saturated inks? I spent a few hours in the studio today trying to create more recognizable shapes and forms— BLISS!
Art on the front porch

Yesterday I taught art lessons on my front porch so today is my day for a guilty pleasure.
Adirondack alcohol inks on ceramic tile and fragments is my medium of choice. Listening to the birds chirping and the trickling water in our outdoor pond makes for a pleasant experience.
