BIRDS ON THE BRAIN

I have been working on art projects involving birds lately.

First, there was the bird banner swap hosted by the delightful Vicki. Below are the banners I received in Saturday's mail (there are a few latecomers, due to arrive at some point.

I just sent off two pages for the Birds and/or Bees theme book for the PhotoArtJournal group.

 

And, for a challenge in both of my local art groups, we're to create a "round robin" - a piece that has a robin and something round in it.  In one group, we also worked on Teesha Moore style 16 page water color paper journal. I decided to make a journal that included bird photos I've taken, some of which I've also digitally altered. My journal isn't finished and I don't usually post unfinished projects (although, come to think of it, I sure would have a lot to post about, if I did); but, I'm going to post some pictures here. These are scans and my journal pages are not evenly measured (I know, Teesha measures hers, but I like the non-symmetrical look of uneven pages); but I think you can see where the journal is headed. You may notice I tend to reuse some of my images (hey, it's my own intellectual property). By the way, can you spot the robin?

It is quite hard for anyone so that you can differentiate between a groundbreaking Handbag and it has the replica because while defining it as, a team associated with dedicated workers have good care of the miniature detail in order that the buyers are thoroughly satisfied.

Gorgeous Joanne! You've been so busy! I love your bird shots- you've got a great eye for it! And your lovely juicy color combos make my heart sing!

[Jeanie]

Oh, Joanne -- I've seen a lot of work you've done over time -- in person and online. I even have some! And I love it. But I think of everything I've seen, this just may be my favorite. Your journal is absolutely amazing -- glorious color, depth of feeling, sense of "the bird" and such a beautiful marriage of all the work you do so well. Bravo.

[Bailey]

Gorgeous colors and textures. I love the lace and those eyes!!!

You have been very productive! With wonderful results, I might add. Of course, if it's a bird theme I love it.

Gorgeous bird biz, but I can't find the robin. I bet he is disguised in a feather cloak of another color.

[Christy Grant]

Your journal pages are to die for!! I love each one! What a very busy artist you have been!
I also love seeing all of the bird banners - each one looks great! I hope mine will be winging its way to you tomorrow! (I didn't even think about doing ties on each banner! Now I need to re-think/shop/unearth something for that feature on each of mine!)

[Fran]

These are great. I love that you're doing the Teesha-style with your own photos. Lovely!

[Judy Streger]

Just remember it's better to Have Birds on the Brain than to be a bird brain. You've been busy. Yes, I found the robin. They don't call me Eagle Eye(pun intended) for nothing. Great work. I hope you'll post the finished pages when you get them done.

I love the birdies!!!! You have been busy!
