HAPPY HAPPY HUMP DAY!!

Whew!! Hello!! I have been a bit busy this week, and finally got out of my "couch potato" mode..This is some of what I have done..there are more--but, several of the pictures did not turn out. This first one is about 8 x 10 on wood.

This is a cut-out of a fish that Nature Boy cut out for me.

This painting is on that glued together kind of board..I don't know what they call it, but I like the texture that it produced. It's about 11 x 11.
This is done on a 12 x 12 piece of birch. It's very bright in real, and has a lot of depth. I used a ton of plaster on this, painted the different layers, and then sanded it off for the effect. Then I coated it with a glossy varnish. It's really cool up close.

This is a cut-out..with doll arms attached. She was fun to do!!
This one is a house shape piece about 10 x 10.

And THIS is my WORK IN PROGRESS!! I am loving this piece! It's titled " EAT YOUR VEGGIES BEFORE THEY EAT YOU."
I think that I have 4 others, but I will show them later. I have been wonderfully productive this week, and it's only Wednesday!!!WHOOHHOOOOO..
Now..onto more stuff. I am sorry if the story about killing the rattlesnake bothered anyone. Someone emailed me, and said that they were no longer following my art, because I needlessly killed a rattlesnake. Well, for ONE...my husband killed it, not me. TWO... it was on our street, where we have many small children that play regularly outside, and Third..IT WAS A RATTLESNAKE FOR GOD'S SAKE! It wasn't like the innocent black snake that we smooshed with a bathroom plunger two years ago..LOL LOL LOL (LAUGHING OUT LOUD)..Anyway...
On with the work..back to the art room...I made clay heads this morning, so I can do some assemblage dolls. Hugs..and Live Artfully.

1. Love all of the art pieces - 'specially the one on the cool pressed masonite board stuff.
2. Nature Boy created a really cool fish cutout.
3. Personally, I think that your lovin' honey is a hero for slaying the evil, viscous and deadly rattlesnake. Woo-Hoo!
Hugs, Terri xoxo

This is very cute. I love veggie people. I'm always amazed at how many new pieces you complete.

Wow, last time I checked rattlesnakes weren't an endangered species. I would have done the same thing. Children are much more important than a snake...anyday!
