Raggedy Ann Assemblage

Raggedy Ann, mixed media assemblage

My mama heart strings were tugged a bit when Lizzie announced she was too old to dress up and go trick-or-treating this year. She's much more excited about the prospect of handing out candy to the neighborhood kiddos and seeing their costumes. I've been consoling myself by dressing up art dolls in the studio. Remember my little Raggedy Ann? 

Collage Pendants

Spent a bit of time fiddling around in the studio this weekend and came up with some new collage pendants. They are on a smaller scale than these and the miniature collage was created using leftover scraps from this pile. I was quite pleased with the abstract patterns that emerged and am thinkin' I may have to keep one for myself.

Visual Stripes

In lieu of my usual vignette I'm posting a visual collection of stripes from around my home. Collecting these visual patterns on my iPhone is quickly becoming a new favorite pastime. Enjoy!
