Hello November

 Well I managed to neglect my blog again...It was busy for me. I taught a gel plate printing class and that was great fun. My show ended at Mariposa Gallery- so no more shows for me for a while. Because Day of the Dead was this past weekend- I will share some things I did for that. Collage group met last Wednesday and we traded Day of the Dead themed artist trading cards. I will share the cards I made for that- I got into that. I will also share a booklet I made that holds 4 trading cards- And last I will share a collage I made honoring Matt French- a very special art friend that died

Here are the Day of the Dead artist trading cards- well some of them. These are 2 1/2" x 3 1/2".

This is the collage honoring my friend Matt French. Matt lived in the UK- we met in an online collage group Collage Dream.  We became fast friends and exchanged art and did several collaborations together. The center man is Matt he painted this self portrait. Matt loved skulls and he used them in his art. The small figure is a piece in one of his collages that I copied to use in this piece.
