Is this cactus wonderful or what! Unbelieveable how large the bloom was. I even used a tripod to get a sharp picture of it. Better than most of my photos! Kev’s been giving me photo lessons! Click on it to see the detail!
Kev and I did the Sunnyslope artwalk, he posted a couple of pics on his site. We had fun, sold some art and true to form bought some art!! We bought a wonderful painting by Art Smith, he’s a local Phoenix artist who’s work we really like. And Kev traded one of his prints for a print of a crazy neon cowboy! Will take a photo of them and post soon. And my ladies did well. Will post photos soon. I need to update the galleries too. Can’t keep up! Oh well…..have a happy day!

In preparation for the Sunnyslope Artwalk I decided to do some new stuff. This lady is the first in the series. First she is hand drawn, colored, embellished and then I used wax over it all. I’ll post more as photos are available. Hopefully there will be some more detailed collages featuring these gals also. But it’s a crazy time, my mom and aunt finally got their new house and the move is eating into art time!! But it will be so worth it once they are moved in.

The saying goes, diamonds are a girls best friend, this guy must be looking for his girl bird! He’s waiting for her on an antique jello mold. He’s also the last one in the bird series, hope you enjoyed them.

I wish I was relaxing on the couch, or a big chair or anywhere!

Doesn’t this one look like a Mexican General? Or maybe a member of the French Foreign Legion! His wings are made from the metal whooies you hang from liquor bottles, one says scotch and one says vodka, hmmmmm… martinis come to mind and it is happy hour!

I feel like this bird most days, like the ball is my life and I’m trying to balance just to stay on top of it!

It’s raining here in Phoenix. Again! Our lawn hasn’t been this green in years! Anyway a good day to stay home in our nests! Kev and I have been in our studios all day! Well except for an exceptional brunch at the Rokerij! Yum, drinks, coffee, enchiladas with eggs and Carne Adovada. Back to work, it’s almost happy hour!

Because this guy is ready to party. Ready to leap from the frying pan into the fire!! It’s a big art weekend in Phoenix, tonight is the monthly artwalk and all weekend is Art Detour downtown. And it’s supposed to be a beautiful weekend so maybe we’ll just forget the yardwork and head out!

So what do you think, King or Queen? I think Queen! She’s sitting on an old metal box I found at a yard sale. It was filled with old nails, now it’s empty, ready to be filled with some special treasure. What is it about boxes that we all love!

This guy just looked like a rowdy dockside bird to me. And he found a ring of treasure! His tail is covered in vintage nu-vise signals and his hat is a cap from a bottle of Fish Eye wine with a piece of scrap metal on top.
