She dreams the future

She dreams the future, originally uploaded by Reluctant Aquarian.

My first stab at a beeswax collage. Woman's face is a sticker I found at the First Friday Art Walk in downtown Phoenix.

Shamu's faery

Little known fact: Shamu is so busy, he needs his own faery to help him keep the magic alive.

New year resolution faery

She was an ordinary woman until New Year's Eve when she set a most unusual resolution: In 2008, she would grow wings and learn to fly.

La nuit

This is for the "la nuit" challenge at Dans ma maison il y a... . It is not beautiful and artsy like most of the entries there. It's what I could do with 5 stolen minutes at work, hoping my boss wouldn't find me gleefully pawing my stash of magazine cut outs and playing with my glue stick. The background color is done with watercolor pencils - still trying to figure out exactly how those could work better for me. Better color selection would be a good start. I may rework the background color to fit better with the blues inside the house...

All Dressed Up and Nowhere to Go

Watercolor, acrylic, rubber stamping, papers from magazines and scraps from other collages.

Made for the Saturday Surprise Challenge group on Flickr. Theme was WATER.

Also for Mixed Media Monday challenge on paint.

I hate this scan. How do I get rid of the ridges where paper overlaps under the paint?

Super faery

Super faery flies high for accurate weather forecasting.

Fun!

Done for Illustration Friday, where the theme is WRINKLES. When I think of wrinkles, I think of my skin after I'm done playing dolphin in the pool.

Workout Faery

Don't mess with her. She works out 24-7.

Calendar altered with magazine pictures, acrylic paint, and butterfly wings from a collage sheet.

Book of Faeries - altered calendar

A little pocket calendar from the dollar store. I decided to collect faeries in it and this is the cover. Do you recognize the little boy from the Universal Wringer postcard I posted yesterday?

If anyone can tell me how to make it so that the picture doesn't get cut off on the right side, I would so appreciate it. Click picture to see all of it.
