Carolyn Dube, our Day 3 instructor, led me on an entertaining journey with this project.
I call it
Home on Joy Lane
The substrate was a canvas which is just as much fun to sew on as journal pages. Would you believe the windows were tastefully built out of a rice box and the backside of a Ghiradelli chocolate wrapper? Yep, it's true. That's one of the fun parts of mixed media--you can sometimes eat the contents of your art supply packages! It would be a mighty delicious day if I were building a city full of skyscrapers.
It did take me a little while to get into the groove though. In the end, however, I achieved the color and whimsey I love! Home on Joy Lane makes me smile.
I really loved Carolyn too! Not only was she cheerful and fun but it looks like she loves color and shine as much as I do!
Off to do Day 4.
Yeah, I'm behind
(and there's a good chance I'll stay that way)
but I'm enjoying the journey!
Tootles,
