Superior and Artsy Sites to See

This week is a little mix of

work and play.

Although, I'd never call creating 

artwork, actual work. 

Onward, to some play and play then. . . 

Here are a few of my pieces from this 

past week. 

~Mixed media fun. 

Pink kitty

Mixed media with colored pencils,

paint, and collage papers.

Folk art bird.

The quote is one of my favorites on faith:

Faith is the bird that feels the light and sings

when the dawn is still dark. -Tagore

Been there. . . 

On Saturday, we took a visit to Superior

Arizona. It's not too far from our house. 

Here are a few fun pictures of the 

desert and the town. 

The fruit on the saguaro's are open

now, feeding many of the desert animals. 

That's Picketpost Mountain 

in the background. 

They drop from the top to the ground

and feed more creatures there. 

Isn't it pretty? 

This was one of the fun artsy houses

we drove by. 

This house made me smile when

I saw John Wayne at the front door. 

The following are some of the

town shops with their murals. 

Thank you so much for 

visiting!

I hope you have a wonderful week.

Little Girl At Heart Art

As I look over this collection

of pieces from the past

week, it reminds me that I'm 

still a little girl at heart. 

Bright colors

and cheerful themes

are what I'm drawn to. 

I'm the same way when it comes

to movies. 

I want to leave the theater uplifted and happy,

not drained or discouraged. 

There's enough heavy stuff

going on in every day life.

Movies and art tend to be pleasant escapes

for me most of the time.

The following are mostly mixed

media pieces, which

I've been having fun

with lately. 

The saying on this last piece is actually

one of Willie Nelson's song titles. 

My dear artist friend Dede and I both

love Willie Nelson music and this

is her favorite song of his.

It makes me smile. 

Thank you for visiting. 

I hope you have a fabulous and productive week!

Sah-WAR-oh Folk Art

Saguaro's are a sign

of HOME for me.

They're sometimes refered

to as the sentinels of the desert.

It's so much fun creating worlds

where pink houses, real rosy

cheeks, turquoise hair, AND saguaro's exist. 

Mixed Media~ "Aloha"

I had so much fun creating this piece. 

I've been dreaming of an island

getaway lately since our temperatures

have exceeded 105 this past week. 

I used texture, jewel embellishment, 

decoupage, paint, ink, pencils,

you name it. 

Today I'm working on another bird

house that my husband made last week. 

I'll post pictures of that when I'm finished. 

I'm feeling a little rushed today with

all I want to accomplish. 

Better get to it!

Happy creating and thanks for visiting.
