Fun mixed media project

A month ago I took up the challenge and participated in Amy Souza’s April Postcard Exchange.
I have wanted to work on some collages for a while and just be pure playful this was my chance ;P
Here are 4 cards that I finished and mailed this Saturday. Perhaps this is just the start.. 😉

Friday lunch at Osha.

I just had a wonderful lunch together with my artist friend Jenny Wantuch at Osha’s on Second Street in San Francisco.
While eating spicy food & spring cleaning clogged brain cells.. constructed ideas came up about Open Studios and why we have them.. We also came up with many prosperous ideas of art projects that will come to bloom within a year or two.
Yes for pumpkin curry and curated, self portrait shows!
