Getting Ready for Nature Festival!
DATE: 05/30/2008 05:54:39 / MOOD: full of life
Presently, along with all my other activities, I am getting ready to set up an activity booth at the Ipswich River Wildlife Sanctuary, Topsfield, MA this Sunday, (June 1st) to make nature Artist Trading Cards with the children. I tried this at last year's festival, and the kids loved it, so the leaders asked me to do it again! We will make about 3 or 4 cards per kid, then each child can trade one of their cards for one of mine, that I am creating this week for the festival. I often create some from photo-paintings featuring scenes from the sanctuary itself. The weather looks to be a bit cluttery, but since the event is held rain or shine, who cares? Come and see me if you are in the area!

Still Creating!
DATE: 05/14/2008 05:37:57 / MOOD: happy
I have settled on a theme for my work this summer: "Colors of the Farm". It will be the theme for the majority of my digital (and analog) works. I will be taking reference photos of small farms and historic farm birthplaces for this series, using them to create the works, and then choose the best for giclee' reproduction and/or acrylic/oil painting. Here's hoping that my fall display at my friend's farm festival will be successful! I will keep my journal here! Any advice for advertising?

Happy Mothers' Day!
DATE: 05/11/2008 05:15:49 / MOOD: happy
One Hundred Years! That's how long there has been a Mother's day! Unfortunately, my Mom is way up in Maine, and I can't visit her till next month! -sigh-. Still, my Mother-in-Law is nearby, so my Hubby and I will take her to lunch today! But, don't worry! I'm painting a pic for my Mom to bring up with us; it's of some rhododendrons (one of her faves). I've taken a photo, and will turn it into a nice acrylic painting for her to hang in her apartment.

Dellabella here!

New here, and looking forward to making friends! I enjoy doing digital paintings mostly; I like taking my own photos and using them as templates to create original works on canvas as well. I am determined to share my love of art with the world, even if I can't make much money doing it! Would anyone like to be firends with a happily married 54 year old birdwatching and artist nut?
