And as I've still got 3 more faces to go here they are....
The top one fits the theme over at IamtheDiva as I used the tangle, Crescent moon...
Then my last face is actually three. It's the palette I finished for The Hammondsport Auction. The Chamber of Commerce supplies the wooden palette to artists, and it's on display all summer with letters to encourage people to get out and see all the palette's near local businesses. You collect all the letters, figure out what they read and are eligible for prizes. They auction the palettes off at the end of summer and the artists get half of the sale price. This is my second year. I'm full of links today and I'll link this with paint and palette as I have a picture of the "palette" I use for the Palette. Ha!
These are BIG.... over 3x4 feet!
Above is my daughter and the others are her friends....
See you tomorow with a new mandala!
Your faces are so beautiful! Every single one of them. I love the patterns on the girls' dresses too!
ReplyDeleteI love your ladies and how clever it is for you to incorporate your challenge into the hair. I find your art unique and refreshing!
ReplyDeleteThese are wonderful. I am working on the tangles. I love the work into the hair also.

Such a creative mind a work here! I love your posts and these are no exception. You are an inspiration.
ReplyDeleteAmazing work again Andrea!!! Those "ladies" with tangled hair are just fabulous :D XXX
ReplyDeleteInspiring!
ReplyDeleteAll of it!
Oh how I love bubbles!!! I play with the grandkids when I can with them. It is such a JOY to watch the chase them!!! Thank you!! Cathy
ReplyDeleteAndrea, Your palette painting is gorgeous! I love all the details and the fun felling it conveys. Thanks for thinking of me and playing along with P&P this week! I'm sorry the party is ending too. I started the P&P blog party with the intent to give something back to the blog community and to provide a space to generate interest and a dialogue between artists about what they use to create their works. I've been very happy with the quality of entries and have enjoyed getting to know all the regular participants, so it has sadden me too that as a result of lack of comments on the question I put forward last week about what the participants see in the future for P&P that it will not be continuing. That being said, if there is enough interest, there is a possibility that I will continue the party, as this blog party is for the benefit of artists in the blogging community.
ReplyDeleteHappy Creating.
Tracey
Wow. Your palette is absolutely amazing...
ReplyDeleteeach face is a joy to see! Really wonderful.
ReplyDeleteI love the tangling in the hair.
ReplyDeleteI haven't blown bubbles for years. Maybe I need them now as a joy restorer!

ReplyDeleteThe faces are fabulous! And yes, I love bubbles. Bought some a couple of weeks ago and went bubble-icious with four year old Logan. The puppy loved them, too.

ReplyDeleteyour style is lovely - the hair variations in all of your girls are fabulous - i may have to try something different. Your palette is lovely - it conveys the joy of being a teenager (so much better than the angst)
