A new Bluebird Party has arrived at GalleryCitrine today. This piece is 6x24 on wood panel and is wired in the back for hanging. It’s a great size for those narrow walls in between windows and small spaces. This piece is comprised entirely of torn and cut handmade and marbled papers with their little wings escaping the edge.

This morning I dropped my pieces off at the Landfall Foundation Art Show for hanging. This is always a great show with a portion of the sales supporting the foundation, which supports local charities. It opens on Tuesday and only hangs for a few days so don’t delay! Scroll through for info on times and location.

A new Blue for you today! We watched this majestic blue heron moving through the low tide waters at Mason Inlet recently. He allowed us to stay a safe 15 feet from him as he walked about while I snapped my photos of him and enjoyed the stillness and peace of the morning.
“Blue Looking at You” Layered paper painting using all handmade and marbled papers on 12x48 wood panel. He’ll be framed in a beautiful handmade cherry frame. I hope you like him!

“A Poppy Patch” was inspired by my sister-in-law’s poppies growing in her beautiful gardens in Vermont. She is a beekeeper as well, hence the bees. This piece is made solely of handmade and marbled papers on 24x12 wood panel. The hardwood frame is collaged with various marbled papers that I either made or collected as an extension of the art. It’s a happy piece that brought me joy creating it!

Some little tufted titmice for you today! I am behind on posting as have had a busy couple of weeks.

Poppies on a Tuscany Trail. I just completed this layered paper painting and it is heading to GalleryCitrine today. The frame is collaged as well as an extension of the art as I felt that the poppies didn’t want to be contained inside a frame. Now they have room to grow! This piece is made of all handmade and marbled papers. It is 8x26 including the frame and is ready to hang in your home!

“Seedheads II” Layered paper painting on 6x24 birch panel. This is comprised entirely of handmade and marbled papers along with some music bars from a vintage hymnal. I love the vertical format for fitting easily on narrow walls between windows and doors. It’ll get a cherry frame and be ready to hang!
