What's on Your Workdesk Wednesday: Chuffed to Bits!
I set a record last week of posting three times since last week's What's on Your Workdesk Wednesday link party (On Friday and Saturday, I posted about the progress I made on the Madonna I was painting, and on Sunday I continued my story about World Youth Day in Madrid)! I also did some organizing and cleaning up and my desk is looking spiffy, don't you think? And, I even got to do some art! I am chuffed to bits (as some of you would say)!
Sarah, in her La-De-Dah blog, wrote "Show me your creative surfaces!" in her Mojo Monthly Post this month. Well, I remembered one of my UFO's (Un-Finished Objects) which is on an unusual surface. It is a giveaway fan that I collaged over with a day scene on one side. This week I made the night scene on the other side. Beside the fan is my Madonna and Child, and I am deciding whether she is finished now.
Last month, Annette from Scrap Happens Here posted about her project using some paint chips. When I made a comment that paint chips are not available in my country, she offered to send me some! The paint chips arrived yesterday and here they are on my desk. Thank you very much, Annette! It truly warms my heart and delights me to receive these! I wonder what I will make with them!
That's all for now! Do visit Julia for the list of more desks to take a peek at. Happy WOYWW, everyone!
Your work space is inspiring...so much to look at!
ReplyDeleteAh, I got paint chips too, and still haven't managed to do anything with them (shame on me! Just too many projects already on the go). Love the painting, as always. Why are we so fascinated by others spaces? You should hav sent her a Woyww link! That would have been more than she expected :)
ReplyDeleteHave a good one!

Hi there. Just a quick peek around the door this week as time is definitely not on my side! I did want to visit though. Your Madonna and child looks lovely and you have definitely had a bus week! Hope the rest of it is too, creatively that is!
ReplyDeleteHmmm...this is a VERY tidy working place.
ReplyDeleteLet me guess, it isn't always like this right? Please say yes, otherwise I will feel very embarassed to look at my own working space. He!he!
Beautiful night-time scene on your fan and the Madonna is lovely. Nice desk this week and so much going on.
ReplyDeleteThere is always so much to see on your workdesk. I love your artwork.

Oh wow, your Madonna look great in its frame!
ReplyDeleteI think sometimes you can over do things, thinking it’s lacking something when in fact it looks perfect as it is.
Loving the picture on the fan too, the colours are beautiful and I love all the shooting stars.
Happy Crafting!

The Madonna is lovely as it is, and I learned yet anopther new crafting term today - UFO's - hilarious!

all so neat and tidy.
ReplyDeleteLovely tidy desk there - the Madonna is lovely.
ReplyDeleteWonderful artwork! How interesting that you can't get paint chips! How do you match paint when you want to paint a wall?
ReplyDeleteYour desk is awesome this week, and I love that Annette sent you some paint chips. Just think of all the freebies you can now work with!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the top spot! Beautiful artwork as always :o)

Fab chip- they are so versatile. There's nothing like a clean desk - or a messy one too - love them both. Thanks for sharing your fab UFO with My Mojo Monthly - very colourful and creative! Would you mind linking your photo and post to the MMM inlinkz please, then others can see it too. Thanks!
