Monday mornings mixed media piece - Week 29
Sorry Sorry just noticed when I uploaded it, that it is week 29
Every Monday morning (my Monday morning, it may perhaps be at another time by you) I will do whatever I fancy to do in my altered book. I will se this as a opportunity to play, experiment and challenge myself.
Making books and altering books is one of my passions. This is a cook book
( 26x26 cm) I have been altering, so I can use it for my mixed media pieces, instead of heaving loose pieces lying around in my house.

    I've been experimenting with collage, but it has been largely disappointing for me. When I saw this, I knew right away I would enjoy it, and I did! I made 6 pieces with the same 5 elements in each. Working with smaller pieces made it feel less intimidating, and once I had picked out my 5 elements then I found I could relax and enjoy trying to find different compositions for each. So pleased with my results, I know I will do more of these. I appreciate the inspiration!

    Because I couldn’t draw things ‘properly’, I was told I was no good at art. It’s taken me til I was 68 to learn that creativity is possible for everyone. I could always knit and crochet and sew clothes, but until 2024 I never explored abstract creativity, and now I LOVE it. Such simple things as circles provide so much scope for individuality. I love what you have done and, of course, will try it myself too. Thankyou ❤🙏

    It has been a few months since I watched your videos. My mother was an artist and is now at the very end of Alzheimer’s disease. So I spend a lot of time at the nursing home and grieving. I’m not an artist but enjoy abstract painting and collage. I’m so happy I selected this video today. Blues are such relaxing colors for me. I don’t think you need to be a storyteller. I have always enjoyed listening to you while you work - just being yourself. I’m glad you said this is a good practice in contrast. I. Working on that in my jewelry making
