New Project: Everyday People Collages
Greetings to my artist friends, family, collectors and friends!
I needed to play with acrylics and gouache after dabbling with my textiles for months, so I have completed 4 mixed media EVERYDAY PEOPLE collages.
They are only 8 x 8” and very colorful. There will be 10-12 in the complete series. One day in the near future I plan to make much larger collages and offer archival prints of the smaller ones. The original collages are for sale in my shop now. New collages in the series will become available as they’re produced.
I travel around the city on the bus and I see people from all parts of Africa, Asia, US, Hawaii and Latin America. I confess that I LOVE many of their clothes, so I dedicate this to the people I see everyday in Seattle.
I am very grateful that I am able to still do some embroidery and hand sewing projects because of the RA in my wrists and hands. I think varying what mediums I focus my craft on helps my hands actually. I have had to slow down because of the RA but I am still not allowing it to own me!
