Experimental Birds and Studio Clean Up
I have a bunch of altered papers so I decided to use my Three Crows Stencil to make some cut outs for some upcoming projects, so far it's a LOT of fun!
Shiva paintstik in iridescent copper and raspberry pink folk art paint on blue scrapbook paper.
Am gearing down for my solo show next month, and another project that will be revealed about mid-month so decided it was time to do a little cleaning and organizing so I can focus!
I found this raised panel frame earlier, while organizing my paper storage rack, it's been hiding there since about 2009.

Creating a Strategic Objectives Journal for 2014
Am working through Lisa Sonora Beam's "Creative Entreprenure" book again, last time was 2008/09, and am now just creating my Strategic Objectives Journal. I have to say this has been a lot of fun this time around, it especially helps that I now understand most of what she discusses, this due to five years of reading and researching how to run a business. (Raven Stencil available soon!!!)
And what would a journal be if I didn't personalize it with my own artwork? Blackbirds in Tree from StencilGirl Products stencil with FolkArt Indigo paint for the first layer of this journal section. I found these old manilla folders in hubs office, when I say old we're talking 30-40 years old here, and am repurposing them for my new journal.
How I dealt with the uneven edge of the manilla folder, I simply placed a piece of old reciept journal paper under the folder edge.
The journal paper freshly stencilled. I'll add more layers to this piece of paper and glue it inside of the journal somewhere. More later, I have more birds to paint now that the first layer has dried, while I think about my objectives.
