I adore other peoples artwork and am really blessed to live in a place where the arts are important in the community. I only wish they would realize how important art is in our schools. It is always and afterthought because of lack of funding. Anyway thanks for sharing your bounty with us. <br />I am still sans a computer so far this week but my husband is kind to share his so I try not to take advantage. Have a great and creative week my friend.

We picked up a couple of pieces in the last 18 months - a mantis and an echidna, both by local artists. <br /><br />On another subject, the turquoise filigree you were wondering about in my art journal is a wide washi tape. I love it as it is easy to embed into the background.Tracyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12490102426728960849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4110633174455319889.post-83910460662958994752017-08-31T17:08:37.220-06:002017-08-31T17:08:37.220-06:00They were outstanding, Shirley - hope you have a w...They were outstanding, Shirley - hope you have a wonderful weekend in your part of our Canadian heaven, too! xoWin Dinn, Artisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03175735509853498545noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4110633174455319889.post-12324949654879038602017-08-31T17:08:00.166-06:002017-08-31T17:08:00.166-06:00It was a beautiful day, one of the rare ones witho...It was a beautiful day, one of the rare ones without the smoke of the wildfires we've had this summer.
