Sunday in Hot Arizona

While some people are getting out their sweaters and boots, we are still way over 100 in Phoenix in the lovely month of September.  

It makes for strange clothing combos.    We should wear white, as it is still summer weather, ties, pantyhose?  Are you kidding?



AHHHH But Art can be for any season, any color, any style and that is the BEAUTY of it.   Some artists are amazing, some are just learning, some just want to be able to have a lovely scrapbook or send a card.   They are ALL Artists!   When you allow your soul to create visual beauty, you ARE an artist.   What then, is visual beauty?



Famous Artists and Works can be visually stunning but not 'beautiful'.   One of the famous paintings that many people often see commercially is 
The Scream 



Edvard Munch (Norwegian)  1863-1944  
A Painter and Printmaker


******************************




John Singer Sargent (January 12, 1856 – April 14, 1925)

An American known for his portraiture, from which he gained funds to paint his

 passions, including extensive time spent with Egyptian cityscapes, landscapes 

and watercolors.   

He painted American Royalty such as the Asters and Vanderbilts as below...

BUT is beauty also a Jackson Pollack work or something such as the Body Art below....



It is for YOU to decide.

I know I find beauty in all the work from our Design Team at AlteredPages.

 Handy Tip for Artists, Recyclers and Neat Freaks! I have a follow-up to the Citra-Sol method for creating fabulous background pages and collages.   I bought a big bag of navel oranges and realized I had the ingredients to make my own solvent!   Simply take a clean glass jar, peel the rind from the oranges and place all the rind/peels, without the pulp (tangerines, oranges, navels) into the jar.   Pour enough vinegar over the peels to cover them.    Allow the jar to sit for a week or two and VOILA!     You have made your own solvent for literally pennies.    You will notice the liquid getting a bit thicker than the plain vinegar and it does not smell bad!!! I now have a  HUGE jar on the window sill!       Be careful and only use this after testing on a safe spot.

Full Circle

Hi all! Becky here today! I have been in a circle-mood lately & have been doing circles on everything! So why not do some circles with some of my Gelli Prints??? Here's a simple little card I made using 4 different circle punches, a black pen & some previously made Gelli prints! Hope you're enjoying Springtime in your area! Cheers!
