Self portrait, OPAM

I know it's been a while since I've posted.  I've been very busy in my studio creating.

I've been attending Kerryanne's online class(Embracing the Passion)  in Art Journaling.

If you get the chance, I highly recommend participating in one of Kerryanne's online courses.

After a lot of inspiration and confidence, I started this self portrait last night.  Of course it's not finished.  I think with something like a portrait, I'll be going back looking, and making changes for weeks to come! 

Ah, now that I've posted it, I can see there are changes to be made.

Phew, I've been soooo busy in my studio, I nearly didn't get a OPAM done this month.
These jeans were kindly donated by my nephew AJ, (Thanks AJ) that I've turned into a bag.  I added some simple embellishments.
Happy creating,
Hugs*Anna

Series of birds, ME page

Thank you for visiting my blog spot.  I appreciate every one's visits and comments!

 Brrhh- Its very cold, wet, and windy here in Melbourne today, so I cranked up the heater and spent the day in my studio playing.

This is my second bird in the series I'm painting at the moment.

I am now into my second week of "Art Journaling" with Kerryanne from Shabby Art Boutique and I'm loving it.

This page is a little bit about "ME" and my visit to Italy.

Pink Roses

I've been busy this week prepping pages in my Art Journal, doodling, and reading notes for the new course I'm doing on-line with Kerryanne. 
I did manage to varnish this piece that I painted last week. 
Do you have free (ME) time these days? 
I feel life rushing by and one day rolling into another now!

There is one thing that has slowed me down this week-a Soft tissue injury to my left hand. (Yes, I'm a lefty)I can't sew, knit and my art work has been limited. I hope nothing serious ever happens to my left hand, I would be one very frustrated, cranky, artist and Mum.
Hugs,
Anna
