Just a little mixed media photomontage I came up with this morning.

New Collages
I've been experimenting with surreal color effects in collage. Here are some early results. I do not know what anyone else will think of them, but I love creating these surreal images and I love looking at them. So I'm happy.
Studio Itch
I meant to spend all weekend with my family, but the studio itch got too strong. I had to do some painting.
Double Sleepover
Last night, Angelica was invited to a sleepover at her friend S's house. Tonight, she was invited to stay again, so we picked her up just long enough to take her to her appointment and then we brought her back. Hopefully she's having a lot of fun. C and I are. We went to the … Continue reading Double Sleepover

Today I just wanted to hide in the art room to read and collage awhile. I wasn't feeling social. It was nothing personal. But my … Continue reading Exhausted
Collage to Relieve Anxiety
So much less Instagram
Since deleting my trad wife Instagram, I feel freer. I made friends there - some I will keep up with other ways and others I'll just miss. But I won't miss dealing with the daily drama and arguments and some people who are so unhinged as to make me look like a normie. A lot … Continue reading So much less Instagram
