Somehow, I omitted Connie K. in the last post. So here are two days of her work. You can see all of her posts -- in the right order -- on her blog: http://cwkalina.blogspot.com/ In this first photo, she is learning to do the Austrian Block Stitch.
In this next piece, she is learning to knit in the Continental style:
Susan (http://susanstudioarts.blogspot.com/2014/01/make-art-every-day-another-atc.html) has created another of her wonderful ATCs. She says "ATCs are just perfect for trying out ideas. On this needle felted ATC, I machine embroidered a silk carrier rod, attached a vintage brass buckle, some seed beads and a few very out of control french knots."
I worked on an experiment in which I colored Golden Pouring Medium with India Ink and used it as a resist, creating a very abstract blob of lines. I painted the many sections with Twinks and then began to doodle atop the painted areas. I was delighted that the colored pouring medium worked...so much an improvement over using plain pouring medium and then attempting to color the lines. I admit, it is a bit funky looking, but for an experiment, it was fun.
And, of course, my Journal52 page for the day:
