Monthly Art Chat - August 2014

afternoon, I enjoyed my crafty afternoon and had a commission too, so that’s done just waiting for glue to dry. I was asked for a memory book with a lurcher on

loving the abstract Margaret, very colourful!

that window is fab Pam

brilliant miniatures Hazel, not surprised your earlier one sold so quickly either.

Your budgie is so colourful and cheerful Stephie even if not in person lol!

Ooh Pam that’s a very pretty window. All those bricks must have taken ages!

Lol Margaret I like your thinking! You’ve certainly picked a great name for that one. How many inktense blocks do you have? It’s fab.

Aw that’s a pretty memory book Max. Will it be filled with pics of the lurcher?

Waves to everyone else.

I’ve been working on an art swap Hare aceo today in between going out for a meal, doing a bit of baking and doing a lot of absolutely nothing! I’m off to bed now, night all.

Morning all :slight_smile:
Lovely memory book Max.
Stephie, I only have 12 blocks at the moment, but I’ve ordered more!

Good morning! I have 10 inktense blocks in my set, they came with a tin of inktense pencils - I still haven’t got the hang of the pencils properly, I have difficulty getting the ink to fully dissolve and stay where I want it to stay at the same time.

Here’s a brusho butterfly

Pretty poppies Hazel, love the butterfly on them too, it’s a day for butterflies! :smile:

Thanks Margaret :slight_smile: yes since I was commissioned to paint some butterflies recently I’m a bit hooked on them and have started appearing in several of my pieces lol

Afternoon all, love the butterflies today, here’s my contribution

I fear I may be on the bus for some time, we have the NATO summit in a few weeks in Newport but they are having events all around Cardiff and gave put up barriers and closed a lot of roads, causing chaos!.

Very pretty butterflies Max, they well and truly fit into today’s butterfly theme! :smile:

Love all the butterflies - and they’re all blue too :smiley:

Yes blue butterfly day :slight_smile:

Yours are lovely Max :slight_smile:

Having a theme day made me wonder should we have another little challenge the last one was fun :slight_smile: I even sold my wax ice cream lol

What a good idea, what theme shall the challenge have, anyone any suggestions?

Just realised there was a current theme of butterflies, sorry I didn’t stick to it!!!

Birds do fly though, so I’m halfway there!!!

Do apologise!

Hi Kelly welcome back! I remember you, I loved your art and have some in my collection I recall :smile:

You sound like you’ve been very busy in the last few years, well done!

I love the colours in this one and look forward to seeing more of your work, I’ll go favourite your shop now so I can keep an eye on what you’re listing.

Don’t worry about the butterfly theme, it was just by chance that three people listed blue butterflies today! :smile:
