I love blogging.
I like to have time to take a number of photographs of the creations I have made.
I like to edit and crop them a bit.
I like to think about how I made something and what I can tell people about it.
I like to share a bit more then just the image.
And ..... even though it is easier just to post a quick picture on instagram
(which I do - my link is in the sidebar if you are instagramer)
I do hope to still be here sharing a bit more about what I create
- it makes me happy.
So today I share with you a mixed media creation on an emptied out tea bag.
(actually it is on a tea bag and a third - one wasn't quite big enough)
It was made using a couple of photographs I took, a drawing,
some paint and ink and of course a bit of collage bits.
A final coat of paste wax gives it a beautiful finish and adds some depth.
Same process different end product.
Thanks so much for taking the time to visit.
....... and oh yah - Happy Earth Day!
I prefer to read blogs over looking at photos on Instagram..... I like to read the stories behind the creativity :)
ReplyDeleteI am happy that you are happy to keep on blogging. It is the only place to truly get to be able to post and read in depth!

Greetings from Dorthe
I so agree with you about blogging. It brings me just what it brings you - the sharing of much more than just the image. I did Instagram for a while but found it most unsatisfactory. I couldn’t share what I wanted and the process didn’t make me reflect on what I was doing at all. I certainly didn’t find the time to do both. Consequently, my Instagram account lies dormant though sometimes I look at the images posted by others.
ReplyDeleteSo glad I can continue to visit your lovely blog. Long may you continue to post - and thank you!
I love your beautiful creation and love that you are still here, sharing and blogging.
ReplyDeleteI think I’ll always blog- it’s part of my creative process. Helps me to articulate my thoughts behind a piece. Beautiful work!
