We prayed for rain....and we most definitely received it. No longer say anything remotely like drought. The cracks in the ground have healed and the grass and plants are growing very well.
And thanks to the rain, stayed focused on a few projects that have accumulated. Visited Texas Art Asylum in Houston a few weeks ago and purchased two beautiful wood frames. It was interesting that I was drawn to do something on the back rather than front [perspective always off kilter...]. The frames have channels that allowed insertion of wine corks {after they had been sawed in half - challenging right there} and the other I hammered dominoes into the frame. The center board is painted with magnetic paint, with chalk board paint over it. Both a little rough...but interesting.
Then, thanks to Theresa, have a metal tray with dragonflies. It was "nice enough" but quit plain. I added a small amount of paint to the dragonflies on handle, some sparkle to wings, citra solv paper to center and then a few acetate embellishments.
It is STILL raining...so back to creating...
