WOYWW: Artist Trading Card Mass Production!


Happy What's on Your Workdesk Wednesday!  I've made some progress on my ATCs and it's a good thing since the WOYWW anniversary is coming up soon.  Here's a close up of a few of them...


Considering they looked like this last week...


I am quite pleased...


For Word Art Wednesday, a reminder to take courage, whatever troubles we find ourselves in...


Here's a picture from my Instagram account to wish you a belated happy Mother's Day...


I won a copy of "Life after Art" from Ramona over at Create with Joy and it arrived this week.  Thank you so much, Ramona!  I haven't started reading it yet but it looks like a really great read.  Matt Appling, the author, says, "the art room’s most enduring and timeless lessons are not for kids learning to paint or draw, but for adults who finally want discover how to live the lives they were created for."  You can even read the first chapter here. ( I'm also linking this up with Inspire Me Monday.)
If you haven't joined my giveaway for this original painting...


there's still time to leave me a comment or two!  

Have a great week everyone!

    Beautiful ATC's! You've been working hard on these! I really love the scripture and journal painting. Such gorgeous colors and design and a wonderful message from our Lord!

    Oh my word, the ATCs are wonderful - I didn't realise how much work the blending of the original picture would take - now they look seamless! Brilliant. Makes my ATCs look a little wanting, I can tell you!
