Book Art is becoming

my main focus and quilting has become secondary for me.  It is a lot easier and faster to paste a few papers down than sewing pieces of fabric together in a hurry; but not anymore enjoyable for me. I still love quiltmaking and continue to sew pieces of fabric together to invent new and more interesting patterns.  I hope to keep this blog going  and be more informative of my journaling as much as possible.
 The first picture is of a journal I made by painting Fredrix pre-primed canvas with acrylic paints and stamping images from my home made stamps.  The signatures are hand sewn in and there is a button and beads strung with wax thread.  The second picture is a page from one of my old art journals. Enjoy

Mixed Media, collages and basic picture

art have all been a part of my art journals.  I have even started painting on canvas, and making my own stretched canvas pieces.  I have loved painting acrylic pieces on heavy watercolor papers and adding collage pieces and then adhering them to already prepared canvas wrapped boards. I'm all over the place; but time has put constraints on posting here.Here are some of the pieces I've done since I last posted here.  Enjoy, and let me know what you think.
