I’m gonna try to fight my shyness and start posting little projects I’m working on here and there.
To that end, here’s Joy, my first attempt at a patchwork mixed media collage AND painting faces. I worked on her last week up in the deep dark middle of nowhere. I’m not sure if she’s finished, because, uhm, she’s got some seam problems — stabbing her eye and cutting her head off and whatnot. Sorry, Joy. That’s what I get for using weird weight papers and thinking I was oh-so-clever. And actually, I don’t think I can fix that, so you’ll just have to develop some character and inner strength to deal with your imperfections, ‘mkay?
I love Joy!
This is beautiful Tracey! I love her mouth – how the lips have a gleam to them just in the middle, as though the light is striking her there – and her shirt is great.
You’re so inventive – I love seeing what you come up with!
Wonderful, whimsical, and wow! I love your drawing … she has a wonderful expression.
Please fight that shyness … I want to see more!
🙂
What they said!!
She’s beautiful – please continue to share!
Love this. Love the layered images behind the red. Love the muted background and dress next to her sweet, bright face. Love the tag. Love it.
This is great! Thanks for posting! KEEP DOING ART.
That is all.
I love it!
Oh, I’m so glad you “bit the bullet” and posted. It’s so warm and cheery. And never mind the seams–adds to the handmade charm.
Your faces have a distinctive “look” to them. Very nice — you’re creating your own signature. I love this!
