Happy Home

Happy Home 8" x 10" $100

I love all the layers in this piece. The base is a stretched canvas turned upside down. In the opening is a  wood /wax collage piece of women and children and dogs.  Next to the collage on the left is a miniature woman that looks like she is cleaning.  Above her is the letter H and the word Happy. On the right of the collage are game pieces that spell HOME.

The next layer is a piece of glass and then a window frame. On the window frame are two rusted keys and a little bitty bird. On top of the window frame is a small class jar filled with gold and silver beads.

The back is a finished collage.

What I'm Grateful For

"It is a miracle if you can find true friends, and it is a miracle if you have enough food to eat, and it is a miracle if you get to spend your days and evenings doing whatever it is you like to do, and the holiday season-like all the other seasons-is a good time not only to tell stories of miracles, but to think about the miracles in your own life, and to be grateful for them."
~Lemony Snicket, The Lump of Coal

This quote was borrowed from my favorite food blog The Noble Pig. I have not met the woman personally but she always has great stories, great photos and great recipes. She also owns and operates a vineyard in Oregon.  Some day I hope to be as great a blogger as she. 

 I have been grateful for the honors I have received lately...semi-finalist in the RAW competition, selection for pART in NYC and I recently found out one of my artworks was chosen for the cover of the Boise Weekly sometime in January.
