Birthday in a Box |
All the found objects were assembled in/on an 8 x 8 inch wooden cradle frame. I rarely work in 3-D but this was a fun way to utilize a lot of little things from my hoard...er...stash...er...precious art supplies. It made me laugh outright once I'd finished it.
I hope seeing this, and knowing that I'm back,
brings a smile to your day as well.

ReplyDeleteBlue Sky,
DeleteLovely to see your smiling face again. You're right, I do still have a few more "art supplies" on hand.
wonderful assemblage birthday"card" - love the colorful elements you used.
ReplyDeleteJohanna,
DeleteThanks so much!
And this is me having just as much fun watching you have fun! You have just made me wonder why I don't pick up all the crazy bits I find on the floor of the Mojave. Anyway, I would be so jazzed to get a "card" like that. I'd totally love to see more "3-dimensional collages." Honestly, it's a really great assemblage. I love it!
ReplyDeleteStickup,
DeleteOh, I'm glad you're having fun, too! Be warned, picking up crazy bits (pretty much anywhere) can become addictive and appear as odd behaviour. I've amassed quite a collection of rusty bits that have fallen off cars in my village but have come to my senses and given most of it away to another artist friend. I still have a pile of broken bits of colourful tile pieces that I found on a beach in Italy. Seems that's what they have there instead of seashells. The floor of the Mojave...the mind boggles. Take a bag with you--pockets won't do!
But of course.........lucky recipient!
ReplyDeleteGlad you're back,have a lovely weekend.

Ruby,
DeleteOh good, you're smiling, too. The recipient's reaction to the card was to refer to it as "pretty wacky." I think that's a good thing?
Wecome back. Happy Thanksgiving.
ReplyDeleteDCW,
DeleteWe are doing turkey. Are you? But the best part will be the sandwiches to follow the next day.
Happy Thanksgiving to you and your lovelies!
My Maxim eyes are ready.
ReplyDeleteDCW,
DeleteI am embarrassed to say that it took me all day before the "maxim eyes" pun finally registered in my brain. Sorry to say that my latest offering will definitely not be maximized.
