Feeling Sketchy and a New Painting..

Time to replenish my ARTIFACT PLAQUES

I was feeling a little creative and I always love working on these 6 x 8inch plaques.

So seeing that it is a New Year, I decided to come up with some NEW

designs and will post them in my ETSY SHOP when they are all done.

Sketches waiting to come to life...... :)

Message in A Bottle

Battling the winter blues I had a need to paint a beachy feel painting.

We are off to Fort Myers in February and I was thinking how cool

it would be to find a message in a bottle.

This is a 18 x 24 Acrylic painting.

I wanted to have a juxtaposition of the silky water and a pebbly beach..

I love how it looks when the sun shines on it.. it picks up all the pebbly texture!

O.K I admit it.. I have a strange quirk.. I collect Rusty Bottle Caps...

Friends and family are starting to get used to my
mild obsession with collecting rusty things..
Mainly Rusty Bottle Caps..
I may have been a crow in a past life..
My eye always casts to the side of the road..
the edge of the parking lot..
the final resting place of the shiny bottle cap
that through time and erosion become my treasure..
when I suddenly say..pullover..or give me a minute..
They know I have honed in on a treasure site..
Perhaps the spot where picnickers popped
the tops off a cool one or two..
I see I am not alone in this quirk..

Dogfaceboy on Flicker also collects...



Even Kimberly Rogers ..Crafter has a thing for Bottle Caps...
See the beautiful earring she has made..


I am so looking forward to the snow to clear so
I can search for the cast offs of last years pleasures...
