The original colored pencil drawing is titled "A walk through dreamland"-
This is my first collage!!
I think I will title it "Dreamland Explodes"

My Constant Companion.
This is my personal Favorite, my moon and stars. If you know me, and my art you know I have a thing for them. If your new to my blog, well now you know. You can often see a crescent moon and star in many of my images. My affection for the moon began as a child, as most things do. I always imagined my mom was the moon and the first 2 stars that appeared were me and my daddy. I vividly remember blowing kisses to the moon.

awake, warmed by the boiler, rain through my curtains, a Madison wi 54 degrees. Tonight I composed 2 new collages in the closing hours of midnight. My creativity flowing and sparking ideas. Although weak I am energized and have a renewed passion for my art.

YAY! This is my art studio in my new older house. As I write I listen to the new sounds of the boiler creek and surge through the copper pipes.
I just started doing collages, I'm on my 7th. I learned how to collage from my good friend Rebecca. She does creative and clever collages, and bright, vivid paintings! AND she has an Etsy store!

My pink carpet, where I sit. I indulge in possibilities I work well with clutter and details, it is my comfort.
Her face is what I see. I think she is so beautiful, words almost escape me.
