In The Garden Of My Heart

This is the project that I submitted to the Little Art Gallery at my place of employment. I was surprised at how fast I was able to complete it. There are three individual 5 x 7 drawings under glass and a mat. I used permanent bic markers and my favorite extra fine tip Pilot Precise pen. The hardest part was putting it into the the Ikea frame. The back part can be a little tricky. I think the end result is very nice. I hope someone at work will want to trade. Can't wait to see the rest of the submissions.

Jenn's Title card

pages 1 and 2

Jenn Jansen created this awesome little ATC book for me. She uses only recycled items. The news print is from a newpaper she saved from her trip to Hawaii. The ribbons and foil tape are remnents from other projects.

Jenn has been a great inspiration for me. She keeps me creating with all of her ATC challenges. So far she is the only ATC artist I trade with. I haven't joined any trading swaps yet, but Jenn is very active. She shares with me a veiw of the cards she receives from all across the country. One of her goals is to obtain a card from every state. There are alot of talented people out there who use this small format for creating art. So far posting my cards on this blog is my way of putting my art out there. I hope that you enjoy what I put out. If you would like to start a trade with me, just let me know. The challenge we are working on now is an Easter egg. Oh, the possibilities!
