Fort Worth Billy SOLD

A friend Margie Whittington, one of the CBC members sent me this Fort Worth Fat Stock Show Goat photo and I made a hand painted paper collage painting for the FWCAC 9 x 12 show and entries are due November 15. The painting must fit inside a 9 x 12 envelope. I also used some found papers, vintage stamps and my signature Texas map in the background.
Here is a photo at the Upstairs Gallery studio for my "Love Your Life" art journal class. On Saturday we had 10 students and some visitors to drop by. Lots of door prizes that I mentioned in my last blog post but thanks again to Creative Catalyst for the wonderful DVD's and to Strathmore for the Visual Journals. I you haven't signed up for their FREE visual journal classes starting in January, please click HERE.
Looks life fun doesn't it? I see Scherry's pear she had planned to have for lunch but decided to draw and paint it before she ate it. Yesterday we painted things we loved and were near each day, today we painted things we might encounter on travel, people, faces, architecture and we made a few stamps. No more art journal classes scheduled until in May at Dena's ranch. What exciting days to spend with new friends who enjoy making journal entries.

Love your Billy-Goat. He looks like he's giving the eye of warning! I lvoe the integrated text throughout the collage...it's fun to search for it. The pear became a prop? Is that the reason for starving artists?
ReplyDeleteC, thanks for the visit - what an excellent association - never had thought of it; however when we returned from eating at "Fuzzy Tacos" she had her pear journaled and was beginning to have her lunch. It was a beautiful pear and she made a great entry.
