Friday Art: New collage paintings




Fresh from the studio: some new little canvases in a mix of acryllics and collaged parts of vintage books and papers - the first one got sold already! I hope to present some of my smaller works and prints in a little online art-shop soon and hope to find time to work on that "between the years".

How's your christmas preparations going so far?  I hope to accomplish most things over the weekend and just take it easy. After a very busy year, i feel a great need to slow down and let go and allow for some me-time. Happy 4th of advent dolls - will come round for tea and coockies and see what you've been up to!

    I love that these are "new" that means you are still busy creating! Those reds with the turquoise are so lush! I always feel like I have been to a fancy museum after admiring your work!!! I really do!

    YOU SOLD IT SO QUICKLY!!!!!!! YEAH!!!!!!!!! No wonder, this is fabulous art, Martina!!! I could NOT do this style, for I have no idea how to even go about it, but your sense of color and style is so seasoned. Dearest, I am doing so much better. The doctor confirmed that I am well and that I do not have pneumonia!!!!!! Just a very nasty head cold!!!! Yes, REST is the key for us both, isn't' it? But we just can't keep still! I am sending you my fondest wishes for a speedy recovery and ENJOY all the calm and beauty dear one. Thank you for visiting....Anita
