Seasonal Texture Treads!

She's loving the new seasonal Texture Treads from Ranger! Samples for CHA are flying from her fingertips. She's using UTEE (Ultra Thick Embossing Powder) for some and Kato Polyclay for others, and embellishing with Perfect Pearls and Liquid Pearls. Fun, fun, fun!

Homage to Peter Max...

She got a chance to participate in Ranger's Designer Challenge. Each designer got a dress form and some brand spanking new Ranger products. She pondered how to make best use of the vibrant new colors in the Liquid Pearls and Ice Stickles lines. Then a lightning bolt struck. A fun 60's dress in a Peter Max - esque style! She adores the vibrant, happy, exuberant, sublime work of Peter Max!
She cut the dress form just above the base and fashioned a smaller waisted version (with a head) out of tissue paper, masking tape and plaster gauze. She then painted the dress on with Liquid Pearls, outlining with the fabulous Onyx color. She also accented with the great new Ice Stickles palette. Painting a little each night, it took about 2 weeks to complete. Why not consult with your muse and make a form of your own!

Let's Hear it for the Boys!

She absolutely loves the artwork of Brian Van Liew II and Mark Elepaño. They are talented, original & super creative. When she gets a chance to brainstorm about art with them she swears she can see the sparks of genius fly through the air. Honestly, these ornament are great but their 'serious' artwork is head spinningly spectacular. Check out their Ranger supply lists at the Ranger Blog! Kudos to the talented gentlemen at Ranger!

Don't Even Think About It!

Creating on demand. It can frighten the most creative souls. As a muse I can tell you the best way to deal with it... DON'T THINK! Turn off the chatter in your head. Just go for it! Follow your whims, wander in what ever way tickles your fancy. Experiment and trust in yourself!
