2nd Paint Party Friday......Addendum...........




Hi again.....Just wanted to show you the same piece framed.  You don't always have to frame your whole painting...sometimes just pieces of it are quite nice.  Also....save all your old frames from decorator pieces that you are tired of.

You never know when you will be able to put one to good use.




The toe on one of the slippers had become kind of "muddy" so I simply chose to delete part of the shoe...to make it a little more interesting.

Ok....enough of my rambling for today.

Thanks sweet ladies for letting me share my art with all of you marvelous artists out there.

Hugs,

Jo

    It became "muddy," so you just deleted it!!!! I love it!!! :-)

    Mmmmmm, are we spending too much time on our computers? We are making use of that computer word "delete"... a lot, aren't we? ,-)

    ♥ Gentle hugs ♥

    The frame really enhances it -- the wood against the blue & pink -- nice!

    Beautiful painting and amazing photo styling! I love the technique used and the discovery using pastels (watercolor is very challenging for me, but I hope to learn). And your home decor is lovely too :) Nice way to showcase your artwork!

    Oh my, It has been too long since I have been to your blog. First, what great art you did here. I find it compelling with the colors and what looks like ballet slippers.
    Second...Soul Shredders, yup I have a lot of those still around. Sometimes however, I feel like my worst sould shredder is ME....I tear myself up quite a bit it seems.

    I'm a little late with my visit, but I have to tell you...I am inspired to paint some pointe shoes now...what a wonderful idea, and if I can do half a good a job...

    Now my little fairy could have used these slippers....like this very much!

    The colors are beautiful and I like how you created the concept of how slippers would hand on a wall vertically.... literally.


    Looks just perfect in the frame you've chosen....yes keep those oldies and some form the church sales etc they do one day come in handy....like now I use all my frames for the Charlottes Webs I'm sculpting and incorporating within old frames.

TODAY IS MY BIRTHDAY......I'M GOING TO HAVE A WONDERFUL BIRTHDAY MONTH!!!

I turn 67 today.....and actually I feel better as the years accumulate.  Since I've gotten older I actually have decided that I will celebrate each day during the month of October...just being grateful for being healthy and alive.   I hope each one of you who follow this little blog of mine celebrate each day along with me.... Here are some of the things I have planned for my birthday month: 1.  Listing our current home the end of the first week in November.  We are pretty excited to be moving into a little smaller spot as it means less work and maintenance.  We just want to be able to live more and work less.  Although we still have not found our new spot.....we know it is out there.   2.  Taking a 15 day cruise on the Rhine from Amsterdam to Budapest.  We will visit 5 countries along the way.  One of the stops will be in the place I was born....Nuremberg, Germany.  My  family  left Germany right after the war...when I was quite young.  Memories are almos

PUTTING ON MY GYPSY SHOES......................

Bo Bunny Paper Collection Well.......the coach is packed...the laundry done in the condo....and we will be on our way tomorrow. I often do feel like a gypsy moving from one spot to another....and each year my gratitude grows as I am able to continue this lifestyle. I truly would love to "do up" my coach in Gypsy Style...but alas....not too practical as things probably would be flying all over as we traveled down the road.  (O: But.....a girl can dream.....can't she? ~~~ My suitcase is packed with memories To be opened further down the road When my caravan must be halted The bag waits to be opened Stories to be told and shared Like the gypsy's of so long ago But for now....the wheels keep turning And my case grows larger still Waiting for the day..I must be stopped   And my heart, to the brim, will be filled Hugs from me to you, Jo Gypsy photos:  Electric Gipsyland on Flickr

HAPPY HOLIDAYS AND A MERRY CHRISTMAS

This is a picture of our little tree this year.  Each year our trees seem to be smaller, a function of our getting older and just wanting to deal with less stuff.  I'm sure a few of you feel them same.  Although it does seem to be a little weird that we want to deal with fewer Christmas decorations and give each other MORE STUFF in the way of presents under the tree.   Ahhh...being human is such a quandary sometimes!                                          MERRY CHRISTMAS                                                          Jo
