Going Primarily Small

Although it's been extremely busy, I've had a very productive and wonderful start to the school year.  My students will start coming to me for Gifted and Talented services next week, and can't wait to work with them.  That being said, my art studio time has been cut.  However, God is good and gave me a creative outlet by going primarily small.  Thank you, Lord!

Mixed Media Inchie on a Tie
Every Inchie Monday: Song
Julia's What's On Your Workdesk? Wednesday 221
Manon's Paper Saturdays

The inchie on the tie was inspired by the song "Hay Unos Ojos," which Linda Ronstadt sang in her album "Canciones de Mi Padre."  I love Linda's ability to cover such a broad range of musical genres, and this is definitely one of my favorite songs she's performed.  I was also blessed to hear her sing it life back in the 1980's.

ABC Wednesday - G is for Gewgle
Alexandra's Sunday Sketches

The moo above was inspired by Sandy Bartholomew's Gewgle tangle, my love of lettering, and a Celtic art.  I've never drawn on this type of small and unusual format, so it was really a challenge.  However, it was a lot of fun!

The small tag was inspired by my childhood memories of the 1960's.  I was fascinated by the exaggerated fashions of the time, and have fond memories of an older cousin using the "Laugh In" television show phrase regularly.  For more information on it, read my post in Tag Tuesday.

I actually started the tag card above a while back, but had never finished it until last week.  I made a couple of small adjustments to it, which I believe gave it more of a finished look.  It's not my best work, but I like it.

I found the garden pyramid trellis above this Summer at a Methodist church when my oldest daughter and I were taking a walk in College Station.  Since it was in a relatively small area, I decided to shoot the photograph from an angle.  I think it worked.

I hope you like my small pieces of art, and deem them worthy of a comment.  I will reciprocate with a comment on your blog.  Thank you for all your gracious comments during my last post.  I also want to apologize for not posting in my blog last week, but as I mentioned, I've been very busy at work.  Blessings!
