Local Food

I finally finished my collage. It was inspired by the movie Food Inc. We all really need to try to eat locally grown food. It's better for us and our environment.

Brown Paper

Lately I have been obsessed with the show Mad Men, the 1960s fashion reminds me of my childhood. So I decided to make a paper dress in that style. String, staples and clips, keep it on the dress form.

My extended family planted a garden this year. We have had a bumper crop of many kinds of vegetables. I am paying homage with this little okra lady.

Why Daily Art?

After leaving my job in the school system and becoming an empty nester, we converted our backyard shed into an art studio. Three years later I still have artist's block and need some motivation to produce art.

So I came up with Daily Art, to hold myself accountable while I discover the joy of making art again.

Daily art is not meant to be a means of producing masterpieces, but a way to have fun while being creative.

Art can be created by using different materials and ideas.That is why you will see a variety of art in this blog. My hope is not only to be inspired to make art, but to inspire you too.
