armor

I'm slaying dragons, so I need some armor. I purchased the torso from Judy Wilkenfeld in Australia. Hope you like.

fear

im scared, but 'god says don't worry about anything and pray about everything. but i'm scared.
hold my hand god, and lead me the way you would have me go
show me the path lord
the darkness scares me, and i don't know the way

It's fear of the unknown, it's fear of making mistakes, its FEAR! My friend Chris made a collage that says "imagine a world without fear." I can't imagine that. Fear is everywhere. im supposed to put one foot in front of the other, and trust my god. somedays it is sooo hard to do that.

more collage

A new piece, and yes its a bird. I'm stuck on birds, they are so fasinating. This was fun, more of a traditonal collage I guess. Hope you like

3 birds and a wire.

Here is my latest piece. It was slow going, I think my muse is on vacation. Anyway these are some birds I cut out of copper and then did an acid wash on them to make the metal turn different colors. It was fun. Just 3 little birds on a wire. The color I used on the canvas didn't come through here, it's much better in real.
Hope you are all well. It's warming up here finally.

I'm back

It's not been a good month. But I'm hanging in there. The art show is a wash, but that's ok. Chris and I aren't ready anyway. Maybe later. Both of our lives are in turmoil. No details, I'll spare you. But suffice it to say YOU CAN'T KEEP A GOOD GIRL DOWN!
Here is my lastest project. The bird sticks out like a soar thumb, I really like the nest though, it's strips of painted metal. I LOVE METAL. Maybe I wil tone done the bird some.
Hope you are all well, and enjoying some spring weather.

hugs, beth
