Being Silly and Art

Jodie Gonzales asks the question..."What did you do to feel like a kid today"? Well, I walked around in my husband's shoes. They were clunky and SO big. My nine year old gave me this look like I was an idiot and asked me to take them off. I ignored the rude looks and snickers and did this because it reminded me of when I was a kid walking around in my Dad's shoes. He had these huge work boots and I got great joy out of doing it...go figure.


In other Jen related news, I wanted to share a close up of a new bird

I put it on one of Andrew's wood frames and it turned out lovely. The bird is all paper and the frame is papered then I used acrylics to color the background. I was with Adri Whitney at an antique store and I ran across a very old plant book. It was falling apart so I didn't feel bad buying it to disassemble and use the pages for some of my backgrounds.





Ta-da! Another happy bird sitting on a branch, waiting for a home.




Total Fact Randomness...Pigeons can reach speeds up to 100 mph. (where do they fly 100 mph? I always see them just sitting around).

Red Birds

Here are some red birds Ive been working on...love this red paper! I have been spending most of my time in the studio nowadays working on art for White Linen Night in the Houston Heights. This event will take place August 7th from 6-9pm.

I have several other pieces I need to show you but my scanner is in the repair shop.





I am in LOVE with my Art Panels by Etsy seller Andrews Reclaimed. They are manna from heaven people and I wish I had a thousand of them.
