Old Canvas Beach Tote. Help for the wannabe artist. What do you need for art? Practical class: Medieval Manuscript Illumination. July 23, 2014. You know, I’ve always loved that glowing, golden Medieval manuscript illumination. Each time I’m at a museum I search them out. Something about the illuminated letters just makes my heart sing. Old botanical illustrations or old maps do that for me too. You know, huge books with torn pages and brown stains containing precious paintings. Putting this letter togeth...

Dress, Patrice's drawing challenge

Old Canvas Beach Tote. Help for the wannabe artist. What do you need for art? Dress, Patrice’s drawing challenge. October 24, 2014. I was so glad to be able to be a part of Patrice’s drawing challenge. So we tend to buy a lot of second hand, ethically sewn, and organically produced clothes. This time around, I decided to see if I could do some eco printing on some clothes, and see what the results would be. I soaked the clothes over night in a vinegar water solution, and we started to layer the leaves.

Old Canvas Beach Tote. Help for the wannabe artist. What do you need for art? Woodcarving 101, another practical class. August 16, 2014. You got to love the Victorians, don’t you. They had such a quirky sense of style, or keen sense of humour…which ever way you look at it. It seems to be a combination of ornamentation and colour and pattern and import-anything to the max and then push it a step over the edge and beyond! So when the opportunity came up to take a practical class I jumped at it. The practic...

Old Canvas Beach Tote. Help for the wannabe artist. What do you need for art? A bespoke pencil case. March 6, 2015. Here’s some terrific fun! Recently, I booked us a week away in Mexico, and, having C’s children’s art class self portraits. On our minds, we thought we’d make a couple pencils cases to take with us. After all, how hard can it be? So we got a little bit of raw canvas, cut four identical rectangles, and got to work. Bless the person who invented sergers! A few final snips and…. June 25, 2013.

Old Canvas Beach Tote. Help for the wannabe artist. What do you need for art? Painting cookies for Halloween. October 31, 2013. On top of my kitchen cupboards are two old baskets at either end of my duck decoy collection. These ducks count the amount of times I’ve been in Quebec, because I buy one each time I visit, and the baskets hold my collection of vintage and antique cookie cutters, presses and other cookie tools. I’ve had some of these molds for millions of years, but they are still available.

Old Canvas Beach Tote. Help for the wannabe artist. What do you need for art? Playing games, (when I should be working). May 28, 2014. The other day, when C and I were at the beach, we collected some beach wood and pebbles. I had it in mind to make a tic tac toe game for the garden with one of the driftwood and the pebbles. Boy, you should have seen how brave I was. There were sparks all over the place and burning wood and melting, red hot metal! Angle grinders are not for the weak hearted! June 28, 2014.
