happy friday!

i drove myself slightly mad today trying to improve those photos ~ even though i said i'd be happy with the not-so-great efforts in the last post! i guess i'm like that . . .
it'd be so great to get it right, and there is every good reason to learn how to take great photos of my work. i read these helpful articles from etsy's storque on ev + white balance, sharpness/clarity/crispness and hisotgrams and levels again, re-read the manual and played with 2 cameras and all their different settings. i will get there! and i promise i will share some winning techniques when i do.

. . . am sure the egg on the right is just as good as the egg on the left ~ a treat for my egg-loving dog!

happy friday to you :)

work in progress . friday

these are the results of today's effort – it took me quite a while to get into the swing of things today for some reason. i feel like i have so much i want to do and have been suffering from that syndrome where instead of starting you go around and touch/look at all the stuff you want to work on! {don't you hate wasting time like that?}

there's a great storque article: Artistic Endeavors: Dollhead's Favorite Collage which has one of my collages in it! big thanks to katherine for this. am really loving the storque focus on fine art lately.

happy friday to you. am heading out tonite. what are you up to??

this would make a great present

i found this bag by drikab via one of the storque articles {a different bag was shown} this morning and thought how much i would love to get it for christmas!! of course it would also make a great present for someone else too!
