NEW ROOM





I have taken a break, I have lots of room to work
and I do need to do some art work,
I also got a lovely old pine desk for my computer.
Just notice, I have my blog on my computer
on my blog .
I can just roll my comfy chair from my computer across the room
to my art desk. It feels huge and bright in here I love it.

SMALL SCREEN




I took a break from arranging my room to do some much needed art.
I think I have finished this piece.
When I reattached the letters
the hinges don't work as good.
I added some beads some copper thread.
Some little pieces of metal I painted
with copper nail polish.
I used wooden chop sticks for the hinges..

DRAWER LINING


I had some pretty liner drawer paper and added some
some sqiggly gold lines and
splotched some 3 of the tomato latex.
Haven't the faintest what I will
do with it.. Look at it on a larger setting
to see it better.

JAN'S ROOM/2 FRANKS PLASTER ART

This is the rest of Jan's guest room.
Frank is a plaster his father taught
him the old ways of doing it.
This is the first time for doing
the Egyption symbols in plaster.
I think he did an amasing job.

I just gave Jan this great deco lounge chair, it swings up
and down, vibrates, made in the 50s. Looks
beautiful with the animal print blanket...
Jan used to come and visit me and fall asleep
in it...
