Love Boat (what a perfect (well, almost as perfect as mine) husband and dad that's been working with me. This is for his lovely wife - hope she doesn't look on my blog. I don't know if it's a surprise or not.)

This is a 5 x 7 collage using faces from a private photograph, man's body from moonfaires.etsy.com, woman's body and wings from LandofEnchantment.etsy.com, crown from lisasalteredart.etys.com, boat, man's hat, and water from the public domain, and the boots were scanned from a magazine picture. The faces, skin, boat, water, and wings were all hand-colored. All of the pieces were arranged on a sky background from flickr's Joes Sistah.
Well, it's been a good day of work. I still have some trades to work on and when they are done in the next day or two, I am going blog partying, visiting everyone I've missed this week. I have gotten so much art in the mail lately from some very kind, generous, and talented folks. It is like Christmas around here. I will post all I've received along with some blog awards later this week. I had a bright idea. When I am stuck in the hospital with my dad in a couple of weeks, I will be doing some artist features and boy, will I be blog hopping then.

I am adoring the last three pieces you've posted! I agree with Terri - you seem to be stretching and raising that artistic bar. I'm so proud!

Hi Marsha! Your recent art pieces are just fab!! I don't know why sometimes I feel a Monty Python vibe--but I love how all your different elements work so harmoniously together! I'm sorry I don't have more time to comment each time you post, but know that I'm out there blurking every chance I get! Luckily work has not blocked blogs!! :)
Just a quick little post to let you know I'm alive and well. I'm still trying to get caught up on chores/errands after being gone.
You commissioned pieces are FABULOUS! Kudos!
I want to come back when I have more time to finish reading the "Beauty"
post and put 'my 2 cents worth' in!
I'll be back when the mountain of laundry is done....
