Bright Threads Studio

I made my first altered book in June. It was one of those things I had meant to do for years but just never carved out the time to try. So when the Flagler Altered Artists Group was offered the opportunity to display altered books at the local library in July I had the motivation I needed. Not to mention a deadline.

Spending time with other artists is important to me. I have these wonderful images in my head about artists hanging out in Paris arguing about impressionism or the art establishment. There is energy and inspiration crackling in the air when our group gets together. I am always eager to get back to the studio afterward. And a few deadlines never hurt.

I am experimenting with painting on little bags for cellphones. This is the first one…and I learned a lot. Such as quitting when you are ahead. lol

Cheap Joes is having a sale on their Golden fluid acrylics. Time to stock up.

I was busy this morning finishing up some small projects. I made another dozen inchies, postcards and a bag for my etsy site and two bookmarks for my sweet husband. His morning started off by being rear-ended. He and the car are okay, thank goodness.

Hey, just had to share the new back piece that Greg started. Here’s a photo:

You can see more of Greg’s work on his website and on Inked Nation.
