Daily Art Prompts Week 3

Here is week 3 of daily art prompts with Art Prompts Galore. Our host Shannon Freer has such an imagination, she churns out prompts for all sorts of series.  I also do a weekly Post Card swap with the group.  It is such fun.

Week 3
15 Basket.
Just some acrylic paint, an image from a napkin and some punched out flowers.







16 Window.
This was inspired by a window in my childhood home.






17 Book
Background from excess paint, magazine image and quote.
If you have a garden and a library
you have everything you need.

 




18 Float 
Stencilled background, some stamping and napkin collage.




19 Blue.

 


20 Creature.
Collage with torn paper, sponged sky, stencil tree, 
tissue butterfly and magazine image for my little creature.

Daily Art Prompts Week 2

Another week of fun prompts completed.  I am following along with Shannon Freer at Art Prompts Galore.  This group has lots of swaps with lots of imaginative hosts.


8  Hip to Be Square.
 Stencilled letters, freehand B and then doodles. 




9 Dots
Stencils and punched shapes.







10 Trees
I did the trees with a sea sponge and acrylic paint.




11 Hanging.
This was a challenge.  I had no idea what to do so I made a hanging.  Took some fabric and frayed it a bit,  Stuck it to a paddle pop stick and added a cord to hang it from the star.






12 Vintage
Stencilled background with yellow ochre and found some vintage advertisements.




13 Balloons
I got out the watercolours for this background.  I die cut my balloons from pretty envelopes  I receive.




14 Red
I tried to use my gelli plate to do a background but the paint was drying to quick because of the heat.  Found a Marimekko ad and cut and pasted.




So that's it for week 2.  Hope I will be back again next week.

New Year, New Post.

I am certainly not a very consistent blogger.  I am also not good at continuing daily challenges, but here I go again.  I do like arting to prompts and this group is one I enjoy very much. The group is called Art Prompt Galore and I do postcard swaps weekly and I am beginning to do the Daily Art Prompts for 2019.
So here is my first weeks efforts.

1  New.  
I used a new set of stamps I received in a Secret Santa exchange.








2 Shiny
Metalic paints, yoghurt lid embossed and silver sharpie.






3 Round and Round
Cut out silhouette, added hula hoops.





4 Stars
Moulding paste through stencil on blue sky, the collaged silver stars shapes.




5 Teeny Tiny
Painted background and stamped a tiny village.




6 Postage
Sprayed background over some book text collage, stamped post marks, collaged mini postcard and some Finland stamp, a litte washi tape to finish.




7 Lines.
Very excited to get a different type of bubble wrap with a linear patter that you see in the teal.  Purple lines stamped with corrugated cardboard.  Added a little word.
