Tonight was Second Thursday! A few folks couldn't make it and I switched the original activity I had planned (we will do it when more people can be there) with what turned out to be a pretty fun one. I love this group!
 |
| Tonight's group: Peggy, Joan, Leann, Jane, Janice, Took. |
 |
| I had us use an image from a old book, pictures, illustration, wording, yearbook, etc. and work it into a picture. Several people turned theirs into Valentines. |
 |
| Working! |
 |
| Joan with her Valentine...she still wants to use a kangaroo picture she liked a lot. |
 |
| Leann's piece, front. |
 |
| Leann's piece, back...a Valentine. Leann works with cigar boxes a lot (some of these lids came from Leann in a giveaway) -- I think maybe Leann is a little weary of seeing cigar box lids...but she was a sport and played along. She did leave her piece behind, though...I think this may turn into a collaboration piece. |
 |
| Jane and her piece. |
 |
| Janice and her Valentine. |
 |
| Peggy and her piece. |
 |
| My first piece. When I opened the old book we were using for wording, the chapter was to do with a stampede...pretty neat...I randomly opened to that page. |
 |
| One of the snippets of wording. |
 |
| The other one. |
 |
| My second piece...altered yearbook page. |
 |
| Peggy's piece, close up. I really love the depth an dimension...she said it was all accidental...I like this a lot! |
 |
| Janice's piece, close up...cute baby gorilla. |
 |
| Jane's piece, close up...I love how Jane positioned the owl so that the crown is on his head...way cool. |
Earlier in the day I attended a new committee meeting for a new project/artist opportunity with the Northville Art House...I will be heading this up. Lots of good discussion and everybody had a lot of great ideas to share...super input. This will be good. More details after next week's Exhibit Committee meeting when things get firmed up.
