day 2 Grow

Day 2 is in the shop!

I got the idea for this while I was at work today. I was SO excited to get home and work on it. I’m looking forward to getting into my studio daily this month :D

This piece is in the same vein as my other grass quote pieces, but this one is created in watercolor and has a vintage paper around the outside. I apologize that the pictures are not wonderful. I can tell this month is going to be a race against the clock, finishing a piece I am satisfied with AND THEN being able to photograph it for the listing before it gets dark.

My friend Joon is also joining in, posting items.
Anyone else? It’s not too late to join in posting daily.

Years ago when my mom was moving classrooms I found this really big bin of pin backed letters for a cork board. She gave them to me because she never used them. I’ve had them for about 4 years, not knowing what to do with, or how to use them. Well, a couple weeks ago the Found Art Tuesday theme was Grow, and I came up with this idea to pin a phrase onto a tree. With it being spring and the theme being grow, it just seemed appropriate. This piece is not like my standard Found Art, in that it isn’t a piece that someone could take with them. The piece still goes along with the idea of guerilla art and while people are taking this path, I hope it catches their eye and makes them stop and think a bit.
