hi mofo's!
just a couple of updates and clean-ups from last month. i must have got LIT during artsomofo month, because after a couple of evenings of being lazy, reading, eating and wandering around aimlessly after it was over, i started arting like crazy again. if anyone is interested, i now have all of my 31 collages in a nice little gallery HERE, even the ones i did not like.

i have mounted and completed several of the collages and will list them in my ETSY shop tomorrow. i am proud to say that i have been completing many many other collages that i set aside for October and they are now listed and available for sale on etsy. i have been so inspired!! i am sure it is from all of that good exercise last month!

i have also placed all pages of the pencam book HERE

and the full set of daily pencam images is HERE

keep arting! and THANKS!

i am finished!
profound words about the experience will have to wait until tomorrow.
(if ever? ha! i'm not very profound!)
i. am. just. too. tired!
however, i did accomplish what i set out to do and am pleased. it was hard, but fun and i really really enjoyed the group and the new works i have seen here.



( & OMIGOD THE PENCAM BOOK IS DONE!!! )

the daily pencam

unfortunately for the last day i had to sort of cheat. i am not at my office, so cannot download from the pencam! so i had to make today's shot with my jamcam. so only a small cheat? now onward to finish the book...!!

finished this collage. not exactly a favorite. laid paint on the endpapers of the daily pencam book. carved a pumpkin. washed dishes. cooked pumpkins seeds and ate so many i will probably have a stomachache! but no office tomorrow, i can stay home and finish up my month. then go to the dentist. )-: then come home and hope the trickortreaters leave me some chocolate! man, i can't *wait* to clean up my artTable. what a MESS!

the exhausted daily pencam:

working my tail ender off tonight. finished a bunch of collages, and am all caught up in the daily pencam book, to page 29! that's today! it seems the cover won't be finished by the end of the month, but the pages, definitely. the collages, definitely! i am having such fun, but jeez i'm tired.

october 29:

finished more collages. *all* are now started and in progress. made one new pencam book spread and painted pages for the rest of the book. hoped to work on the cover, but it did not happen. did not clean kitchen or finish folding laundry. i guess on november 1, i will clean that kitchen, pay bills, pay attention to my poet and ...







( next pencam spread )

still almost-finished with several collages. finished this one. paint on some pages of the pencam book. a little disappointed that i did not achieve as much as i hoped today. i feel "behind", even though i am only in competition with myself. wandered around this afternoon and made many photos. that counts!

nothing finished tonight. lots in progress.
came home from work. arted around waiting for a plan for gallery walk.
packed up toycams. went downtown for gallery walk.
came home.
tired.
