I found these two end tables- both for $8.00 *Ugly falling apart shades - didn't get a picture of those. *Blonde kinda bashed about finish. *Wobbly- needed some fixing. But HEY! $4bucks a piece? What a deal. So I sanded- primed- painted - added some awesome turquoise shades. (they were $5..00 each) So for a total of $10.00 each (tables, shades, primer and paint I already had) - and a little time and effort- I now have a great set of end tables! Following is a post from 2016 on my old blog: webeginbeing.blogspot.com
I still adhere to these words. I have since discovered Pinterest, which is AWEsome! I have since given away or sold some of my supplies so that I can concentrate on a few things instead of being overwhelmed by so many. I focus mainly on Colored Pencil and Collage work now. I teach Various Colored Pencil Classes. My hope is to have some on-line classes- stay tuned. Learning from Any/Every Source I like to Learn. Whenever I can. From whatever Source I can. I like to Observe/Look at All Kinds of Art, Nature, People. If we Limit ourselves to only one Type/Kind/Philosophy/Idea then we will Always be coming up with "The Same Stuff" I receive newsletters in my personal box from: Daily OM Free Will Astrology Christine Kane Talent Smart to name just a few. Some are daily, some, weekly, some monthly. Sometimes I get a great deal out of the post and sometimes I do not. But they are a good source of the written word from which I can gather Ideas and Information and Thoughts. I "like" numerous Artists pages on various subject matter on my Facebook Page . Painters, Musicians, Collage, Photography, etc. I enjoy going to sites like Demilked or BoredPanda for more Visual Different/Interesting stimulation. I go to the library and look through magazines and check out books from a Wide Variety of Topics. Fortunately or Unfortunately I also have this kind of SunRay Approach to my Art. I have yet to "settle" on a specific medium, theme/subject matter, type of Art. So ..... I sew. I paint. I tinker. I collage. I draw. I use fabric, paper ephemera, colored pencils, paint. I work on paper, canvas, wood, textiles. (when I had a MAC I also did computer driven work) It can get/be over-whelming sometimes. I am trying to follow The Buddhas words: "Do One Thing Well." |
