Welcome back, Muse!

So many ideas - but life has kept me mentally and physically busy lately, so the ideas were overwhelming rather than motivating.

This weekend I created for the first time in quite a while.  I made a very simple piece, and, with a background already prepped on a discarded hardcover book, a more complicated piece using collage and image transfer.  I LOVE using old magazines and book for image transfers - they work very nicely, especially magazines.  Looks like I may be productive again - I have many more magazines images I want to put to use!

Relaxing with loved ones

Just a peek at our relaxing evening at the Naples pier, with a window shopping walk on 3rd Avenue and a marvelous feast at Buca!
