…..this week’s theme is keychain
Thanks to Trablogger for this week’s photo challenge. Not only are we to photograph a keychain but to make the photo more interesting we were instructed to keep it minimal, blur the background and use the rule of thirds. Here is one that I think meets all three criteria.
Here are the others I took. They don’t meet all the criteria and some don’t meet any of them, other than the fact that they are keychains.
…..today’s prompt needs to start or end with the letter Y or start with the word Why?

…..another collage for the ‘colour plunge’ assignment
I’m really enjoy making these small collages. Randal Plowman has written The Collage Workbook and has set out 50 exercises to build up our collaging skills. Evelyn Flint and her sister are encouraging artists to join them on their year long art journey by making a different collage each week using Plowman’s prompts.
This is the third collage I’ve made for this one prompt ‘colour plunge’. The idea is to create a monochromatic collage using mostly one colour. Todays collage uses mostly blue greens. I used some of my text papers and finished it off with paint on bubble wrap that I printed on top.
…..day 34 and challenge #5 from The Collage Workbook
This week (I’ve finally caught up) Randel Plowman asks us to choose a colour and make a monochromatic collage using various shade of that colour. I’ve made two. The first one is mostly reds and the second one contains a variety of pinks. I’ve already starting using my art papers that I made yesterday. Check out Evelyn Flint’s colour plunge. They’re amazing.
…..day 33
Today’s class with Carla Sonheim was to create art papers using text. I enjoyed this process. I used watercolour paper and a variety of pens and ink to create these papers. I found a couple of poems in my Roald Dahl Treasury and I copied them onto some of the sheets. The idea is to fill the paper with words and try not to leave too much white space. I plan to use some of these in my next collage assignment.
….thanks Cee for hosting the Which Way Photo Challenge
It’s Groundhog Day. Which way did Wiarton Willie from Ontario go? Back in his hole. Six more weeks of Winter for us. Ugh!!!!!!!!
Not surprising. It’s freezing outside and the forecast calls for more snow this weekend.
