Sunday Postcard Art - Fish

This week's theme at Sunday Postcard Art is "fish". 

As you can see I've put a bit of a twist on an old saying - in case you can't read my messy writing...

Give a man a fish, he'll eat for a day.  Teach him how to dress, he'll eat for a lifetime.

Incognito Series - Richmond Art Gallery

I am trying to get a sheet (9) of ATCs ready for the annual show at the Richmond Art Gallery.  I participated for the first time last year, and was able to visit this lovely little gallery on my way by when I was on vacation last September.  This year I should be able to do the same.  ATC artists from all over the world can participate, and the gallery staff/volunteers will even trade your cards for you on closing night (something I will get them to do for me, as I will be dropping in closer to the beginning of the show).   Why not get a set ready and send them in - it would be great to see some familiar names on the wall.

There's no theme this year, and I've chosen "incognito" as my theme (not that you have to have a theme, I just fancied having one).  I was inspired by the "pop art" swap I just participated in in terms of colour choice.

Here are the first three cards:

ARTchix Lottery

It's time again for the ARTchix Studio Yahoo Group's biweekly lottery - the current theme is Bold & Beautiful - bold and bright colours (not to be confused with the soap opera - LOL).

Here's what I made:

Sunday Postcard Art - Botanica

This week's theme at Sunday Postcard Art is "Botanica" - what fun!  Here is my entry...

Bird Collage

This little 4 X 6 canvas board started out to be something all together different.  I was going to make it my Sunday Postcard Art piece, but it was one disaster after another, so I painted over it and started again.  I love this little bird from ARTchix Studio.  He is from the new Bird on a Wire collage sheet, which includes all sorts of birds in different sizes and facing left and right.

Helga's Weekly Challenge - Masterboard

This week (and next week), Helga has challenged us to use her beautiful "masterboard" in a piece of art.  I made this greeting card first,

I thought the colours went very well with Helga's bird. 

Next I made a postcard:

Thanks for another fun challenge Helga!

ARTchix Lottery - Winged

Every couple of weeks we hold an art lottery on the ARTchix Studio Yahoo Group.  The current theme is "winged", and here is my entry:

Sunday Postcard Art - Glamour Girls!
