Art Trade

Lisa, whom I know from the moly_x_20 group sent me an email asking for an art trade. As there are phantastic artists participating I joined too. Basically you create one piece of art and get another piece back. It can be a little drawing, a print, a comic or a zine, a photo, a felted creation, a beaded thing... Whatever fits your niche and can be dropped in the mail within a week.

I have to send my art to Dawn. The funny thing is that the day I received the email telling me I´m supposed to send Dawn my creation, I also received the book "1000 Artist Journal Pages" of which she is the author. What a coincidence.

The letter will be off tomorrow and I hope Dawn will like it!

In case you want to join in on the fun, just let me know.

Miriam´s Moly_x_19

Another few Moleskine pages completed for Miriam of the moly_x_19 group of the International Moleskine Exchange group.

Another Moleskine

This moly I did for someone who contacted me at flickr. He said that he really wanted to join a moleskine exchange group with me. As I have already 4 groups running and a lot of other projects going on too, I had to decline.
But I couldn´t forget his wonderful art and so we agreed on an exchange - only the two of us and without a deadline. So no pressure for this group. It took me 5 months to get the first pic drawn.
During the first scanning process a mistake occured. I like the bar code that was created.

Old Etchings - 2

This one was my first try. Not my favorite, but with this simple first piece I learnt that you can make a lot of mistakes in the process of etching.

Happy Birthday, C.!

About one year ago I wasn´t feeling too great. Somehow I had lost many of my friends in the past years (due to life changes) and then C. showed up. Right on time. :) It was wonderful meeting someone who just accepts me and I´m very grateful for having met her. She´s a good friend of mine now and today is her birthday. I wish her all the best and hopefully we´ll know each other for a long, long time. :)


This is the birthday card I drew for her.
