Atlantic Alure

Atlantic Alure

Time for the February Gallery Hanging at the Woodland Art League.  I choose Atlantic Alure my first very large mixed media work.  It is a bit of a mix between a travel poster and collage.  I used acrylic paint, pen and ink, stamps, paper ephemera and a wonderful large gallery wrap hardboard canvas my husband made for me. I love these as they are ridgid and will not give as you are applying your paper ephemera.  It measures 40x30 and will probably have to be put up on the top shelf at the gallery due to it's size.  It was  a lot of fun but honestly hard to fill up "all" that space.  Love the overall feel, makes you feel like you have stepped back in time.

Through the Woods

Through the Woods

Every time I look at this photo I think of going to grandmother's house Christmas Morning.   This photo was taken on a very cold, overcast winter morning in Mina 1 Mai, Romania where I lived.  I had passed this horse and buggy on the road and pulled ahead, got my camera ready and waited till they were just in the right position between the trees. This type of  transportation is still very common in the villages and I could not help but wonder if the passengers were frozen.  We take so very much for granted and while it is nice to see simplicity still exists in this busy world I think all of us should take a little time now and then to count our blessings.  I have sold this as fine art photography and also created a mixed media original gallery wrap painting that is currently at Woodlands Art League  and have a digital print available on my Studio Quest Etsy site. 

To grandmothers house we go

Weihnachtszeit

Just sold my original of Old St. Nick through the Woodlands Art League and was asked to bring in another work.  I finished Weihachtszeit (German for Merry Christmastide).  Nobody says Christmastide anymore but thought it was cute.  This is my take on the three kings bringing gifts to baby Jesus.  Merry Christmastide to one and all.
