I keep telling myself I will make posts between my What's on Your Workdesk Wednesday posts but obviously I didn't get to do that this week. Again. But at least,with WOYWW, I get to post at least once a week!
Then, I finished some ATCs. Some of them had been lying around half finished for weeks, like these two Mother and Child pieces...
And the ones I made by special request for trades in ATCs for All...
I also looked up the info that Elizabeth sent me about Altered books (ABs) and there were instructions to pick a book with at least 300 pages so that we could make a "niche book". Uh oh, I had already picked the book with the least number of pages before I read this so I guess the niche book will have to wait. Besides, Elizabeth says, "you are always free to break the rules, because there are none." Wonderful!
For now, it's off to visit some of the desks joining WOYWW in Julia's site.

thank you for that link about ATC's for all.
I really want to start trading...as soon as I get better at making them!!
I am working on some quilt designs.
You amaze me at your work. I've said that before, maybe even twice, but I do love them!
I really like your mosque ATC, reminds me a little bit of the one of The Palace of Fine Arts that you sent me (the colors). VERY beautiful.
These ATCs are gorgeous. I can't draw or sketch, but what can I say? We all have our special skills. And you are the Bob Villa (if you know who he is) of WOYWW. Great carpentry skills, indeed.
I'm glad you found the info helpful. And yes, I use gesso because it is so cheap here. But your way will work, too. I know what is cheap in my part of the world may not be where everyone else is. Glad you started that spread. It's a fun one just to say you did it! Happy WOYWW from #1.

Good luck with your altered book! Check this blog out - a real altered book journey, it was fab (even though I have yet to start one) I found it really informative. And, Eileen's art is fab.

Wow, you are so gifted, I love your drawings and the colours just draw me in, wonderful work area. Jo x
Gorgeous work Peggy - have you not thought about getting your artwork printed up properly? Some of those mother and child images you do with halos would make perfect christmas cards?
Your artwork is stunning as always. Thanks for sharing.

i have a few drawers of my own that need organizing..but it's funny...my art stuff is all in pretty good shape...it's my wardrobe that needs the help.....I haven't worn some items in so long......
have you inspired me to do something about that?
nope!
you made me want to play in my art room!
and that is never a bad thing!
