Just another manic Monday…

September 15, 2008 by admin 6 Comments

I don't know why, but I have these 80's songs in my head.  Who sang this?  Bananarama???  LOL! 
*Jenna has informed me that this is a 'Bangles' song.  Thanks, Jenna!*

I just returned from teaching over the weekend.  Two days of non-stop classes…and I floated home on the inspiration and the ‘high’ of teaching.  But not before stopping to admire (and drool) over the amazing display of Prima flowers that Scrapper's Cove had on display.  They received their CHA-Summer order – and this was the first time I had seen these new products in person!  I asked Chris to give me the 'Price is Right' pose in front of it.

What is it with the Bananarama?  Now I've got that Venus song in my head: 'She's got it.  Yeah, baby she's got it'…  Here's your Prima.  C'mon buyer!  What's your desire?.  Sorry – I should stay away from fake lyrics for the rest of the day.  Can you tell I'm goofy-tired?

Even though I was BUUUUSY, I made another layout to use for my classes and a card.  I've recently been inspired by the children's book, 'Bugs in Boxes', to give popups a try on my cards and layouts. It's fun!

Here is a card (closed):

Open, showing the popup little red schoolhouse:

And yep, my Prima flower pseudo stop sign flips open too.  I told my husband I hope this card will stop traffic!  J

And the accompanying layout, with the popup schoolhouse opening from the bottom, up – on the upper right corner:

About Sally Lynn MacDonald

Sally Lynn is an Anarchivist® that often mixes her love of creating and teaching art with her high-tech side – blending a love of handmade art with hybrid-digital media in what she playfully calls her ‘studio lab’. Every now and then her large-format printer is subjected to printing on a surface that definitely is not listed in the owners’ manual.

She is a maven for studio organization, using her abilities to use spreadsheets and databases to bring order from chaos. “It’s marvelous when the right and left brain actually work together in the studio!” Read More…

I finished using the @goldenpaints Modern #ColorTh I finished using the @goldenpaints Modern #ColorTheory Mixing set to create all of the mixtures on the included poster. Only the top row are included in the set. The remaining colors are mixed, and tinted 10:1; with those that are intended to emulate tube colors, painted out along the bottom third with their counterparts.

P.S. If you look for this set in the store, make sure to pick up the updated set, which replaces the Hansa Yellows with the new Benzimidazolone Yellows.

Included in the set: Benzimidazolone Yellow Light, Benzimidazolone Yellow Medium, Naphthol Red Light, Quinacridone Magenta, Anthraquinone Blue, Phthalo Blue (Green Shade), Phthalo Green (Blue Shade), Titanium White.

Amazing evocative #portraiture artwork by @calidag Amazing evocative #portraiture artwork by @calidagarciarawles . In 'The Space in Which We Travel' (2019), two girls in white dresses grasp each other’s hands, creating the impression of a double helix. “If they opened their eyes,” Rawles said, “they would see each other.” Water has memory. Lovely!

Just finished this little painting in my #sketchbo Just finished this little painting in my #sketchbook over a light pickup #monoprint for the background. I was reading a book on the porch this afternoon during a light rain, and dozed off; only to be woken up by a very annoying little egret sitting atop a palm tree across from me. His antics were so funny that I called my daughter out to hear him. And so I painted it in my sketchbook for a little memory. Can you find the egret?

Working on the courtyard patio. The weather is so Working on the courtyard patio. The weather is so lovely today, and so I dug out some chairs and a table from the garage and our new @abba_patio 7x9 #cantileverumbrella to create a seating area to enjoy. These days staying at home is all about #outdoorliving and creating spaces to nest in, work on the laptop, read a book, sketch some plants or enjoy a cocktail as a family.

There is something very cathartic, very centering There is something very cathartic, very centering about hanging artwork on the wall. When a piece speaks to you and you choose to put it in your space - in your life... elevate that experience by purchasing that piece from an artist. NOT from a HomeGoods, but original artwork from a person. In this case Ben Dodge. I saw his work in Pressing Matters magazine and I had to have it.
.
Sister Corita Kent Rule No 6 by @bendodge which I saw in issue 11 of @pressingmattersmag and tracked down the artist to buy his work. 🙂
.
Which led me down the rabbit hole to learn about both artists and printmaker Sister Corita Kent who inspired the piece.
