3rd hand, peace and love

I am really having fun with these hands!

I have been working on dolls for 2 different teams, but I also have been painting a lot, only that I need to scan and I have not done it. I also need to list!

Thanks for visiting and post a comment what kind of hand do you want next... I'd like ideas!(◠‿◠)✌

2nd hand and Face in the world

This is my left hand in what was supposed to be a "reaching" position, but somehow ended up looking just funky. The proportions are a bit off, but it was fun to draw, regardless :o)


Also, for my team in "Face in the world", I finally got the first piece to work on fro Australia!
I am working on it with pencil, can you see the arm there? Then I will add collage and a little color... and get it ready to mail it to the UK
 

 
I will show tomorrow you how mine is looking right now thanks to Manon!

April's hands

Well, I kind of ran out of day! I hope you did not suffer to much through the April's fool day. I myself, didn't feel so great today :oB
Anyway.... I am doing hands for this month of April... play along with me!
This is my hand for today. You can make as many, as big, or as detailed as you want. I am aiming for one a day, let's see how it goes!


Pencil drawing with simple indications of what goes where. I love hands, aren't they interesting?

Listing ACEO

Spring is here! Click to see: (I couldn't resist)

It was such a pretty day yesterday. we had a bit of rain, it cooled the weather that had been unusually hot; we had almost 90 and it still was Winter. Don't want to imagine how hot the Summer will be :oP
Anyway, I will list also two Spring ladies, and add them to Pam's blog challenge :oD

There it goes!

I mailed my "started piece" for "Face in the World" to Manon in the UK. She will do whatever she wants to it and ship it to the next person... I can't wait to see how it changes under the creative hands of my team!! ♥

 

My scanner is acting up, not sure what it is, but the colors are not so dramatic and they paper and blue are more closer in tones.

Face in the World


After doing the 29 faces challenge, many people were sad to see the end, so as a last minute I came up with an even crazier idea lol
I giuess some people call it Round-robin, other call it collaborations. You get the idea.
I called this "Face in the World".
Make one face among a group of people, but several groups going at the same time. FOr this occasion I only have past participants of the 29 faces. 5 people per team, 3 International teams and 1 US domestic.
The started original piece has to be no larger than 8x10 and no smaller than 5x7.
 Any compatible media, any style, but it has to have a face on it, and has to be shipped to the next team member after a week of landing in our hands.

Watch the fun as it develops!!

Old looking little journal

I made a very quick "Art journal" to call it one way..... It is mostly a simple set of pages, antiqued and stapled together -which I think it is the wrong thing to do for an "antique" look, but I didn't feel like learning to thread in a hurry and it was a last minute thing to do for my Traveling doll, which started today. I mailed my unfinished doll to be completed by my team members and this book to make some notes. ♥
So, here are the images:

 



A detail of the edges. I have to say, I am very happy the way it turned out!
