Not much art accomplished this past week!

This past Tuesday was back to school for teachers.  I was pretty down at the start of the week, but gradually things got better for me, I began to re-acclimate to the idea of work and all that it entails.  Sadly, each day I was pretty worn out and not feeling much like an artist.Honestly, this weekend hasn't been a lot different.

Saturday I did get an artwork of the day completed.  "Time Passes" began with a layer of titanium white, yellow ochre and violet acrylic paintI added the main picture of the two women and the man first.  Next I used a clock stamp, adding a couple of different colors of ink.  Next, additional papers were glued in place.  Finally, I blended the titanium white with matte medium to brush a layer of transprent white over most of the artwork.  It turned out alright, but isn't one of my favorites. 

Today I slept in until 9:30!  This is very unusual for me.  Now it is afternoon and I have worked out for an hour on the treadmill and made my artwork for the  day.  I am pleased with "Round About".  For some reason I was thinking circles when I began and proceeded to base the entire piece on circles.  I began by spreading titanium white acrylic paint with just a small amount for yellow ochre in a circle.  Next I used a template and the same paint to add the cluster of dots.  I cut three images in circles and glued them in place.  To finish up I added the 7 rivits along the lower left edge of the large circle.  Simple yet affective.
The rest of my day will most likely be spent picking up a few supplies for school and basically getting ready for the week.  My artwork awaits.
