Time to Refresh

Well, its hard to believe that summer is over and so are the shows. It was a strange year for me, things going on personally and never feeling like I entered into my art. I did do some new collages that involved newspapers, and maps and repainting the postcard images. I want to do more this winter when I have more time for it. It takes a lot of energy to put these together, and the gathering of special materials that make sense.
I want you to visit me also on my facebook page , as I probably will update that more often. This will let me be a little more in depth than facebook. My address there is Shebrews Art . I think there is a link on the sidebar, though.

  

I have been collecting images to use for general camping pictures and northwoods adventures. 

I will keep you posted on my progress. 

Art Impressions for the New Year!

It's actually a compliment when they call you strange, if you are an artist........I guess......or, its strange if they call you an artist.....*shrug*. At any rate, you are always questioning yourself.......*smile*.

I am about to begin working on the summer shows of 2013. It's a little exhilerating, and intimidating at the same time. I know what I want to accomplish, I know where my thoughts are headed, but, art has a mind of its own. It never lets you get away with creating it yourself, it always wrestles away from you and somehow manages to speak for itself.

I have found, for myself, its best to get as messy as possible, and hope that, like a magnetic pull, all things come together to say something, to someone......that a connection is made, in some small way. After all, for me, art is highly emotional, and lacks a heartbeat if it is not.

I hope to allow you a glimpse into this world of mine, where thoughts run amok, and ideas try to find a landing place, but, whatever will be, will be......
