Mask Decortating Workshop

Tonight I participated in a pastel workshop with members of ARTinA. Below is the painting I created. Pic journal has additional pictures from the workshop.

This is how my mask turned out. I used phosphorous acrylic paint, mica dust, small gold beads, sparkly stars and some unusual yarn.

Fern Glass Pan Bowl

For this painting, in the Nell Tilton "Abstract Painting Workshop," we were asked to abstract a still life. So here's the result of my effort.

Creative Spirit

This is a collage based on an experience. A month before creating this, I had taken a class on creativity. The piece contains artifacts from the class: illustrations, documentation, copied pages from journals and so on. I used colored pencil to help unite the elements and add a bit of color. Again this is a piece I completed during a Lory Lockwood "Feminist Art Workshop" at the "The Colony" held by Metairie Park Country Day.

Dualing by Numbers

The same summer I participated in the Lory Lockwook "Feminist Art Workshop," I also took feminist art workshop. For this piece we were shown Ida Kohlmeyer pieces and asked to create our own works based on what she was doing. This is the art I created.

XO

This piece was inspired by two sophomore boys who were playing tic tac toe. They kept playing and playing. I painted this during the same "Abstract Painting" workshop with Karen Stasny. We were given free reign on our imagery.
