Weekly Challenge at Inspiration Avenue- "I"

Happy Easter to those of you who celebrate it!  For the challenge at Inspiration Avenue this week, the theme was "I" or what makes you, YOU- what defines your artistic style and really says that YOU created this piece....
For me, my Joie de Vivre altered books really represent me.  The style I use creating them is a lot looser and freer than I can let myself be when doing my detailed flower paintings.  Don't get me wrong, I love doing both, but I feel that my altered books reveal a bit more of my personality.
So I finished a new Joie book with tags and new for me a removable bookmark. 

Have a great day, I'm off to arrange flowers.....
Cheers!

New Treasury

Good morning, I've been included in a new Etsy treasury with the harvest moon as the theme. My piece features one of my Joie de Vivre figures from an altered book-in this case, it's available as a note card in my Etsy shop


As far as the creator of the treasury goes, Carole Fox is an AMAZING artist combining functionality with artistic flair in the venue of pottery. Simply gorgeous work; you can see for yourself here` enjoy!
