Part of something bigger- a mosaic to inspire….

arting, Personal time,

I saw the ad on Instagram. to be a part of a mosaic of tiles created by artistic all across Canada… go here to see it coming together : MURALMOSAIC

Yes, I paid to be part of this- and we pay for therapy, experiences and supplies to help focus our tension on something positive all the time.

I am very pleased with the art I created, and I have some friends who joined in the journey and contributed  their own creations…

yay art!

Once I received the kits, I then offered up the choices to my friends. Blue went quickly, and then I awoke at 4:30 am with a vision for the red, so I chose it, sending green off with the third artist!

and then I painted this with the acrylic paints provided:

And then I felt like I wanted to do more…

So I found some 6 inch ceramic tiles and created a quartet…

Please note that the red tile is a rough reproduction of my original one for the Canada Mosaic Project…it’s proportions are not quite the same, but it works and it’s all good!

 

Getting Artsy…

Part of my new adventures involve taking time to revisit things I used to do/ always wanted to do/ felt I could do, but never got around to doing… like painting.
So… Acrylic painting under the guidance of a lovely artist seemed like a great way to go about this.
2 paint events later, under the tutelage of Laura Daub, my fellow student of couture at Richard Robinson’s Academie des Couturiers Canadiens, who has gone on to flourish in her own artistic style, and here are my pieces!
If you are thinking of trying one of these trending art events, but want to create in an atmosphere of encouragement to be unconventional if you wish, check her Friday Paint Nights  out, and give it a try.
And go do something fun for yourself!
