What's for supper?

I made this salad tonight for supper. It's baby spinach with pears, candied walnuts, and shaved Parmesan cheese with warm garlic tandori spread with goat cheese. It was delish!

She is the "Queen Bee"! I just completed this for a swap. It's 3.5 by 5 inches. The key around her neck is to the hive. She locks the workder bees in overnight and lets them out during the day.

I made this little collage on a piece of Formica and it's going to be turned into a necklace for my friend Marsha. It's her guardian angel! She won it when she correctly guessed "Formica" in a previous post. I have to seal it and then get it mailed on Monday.

This is the back of the angel collage.

Orange, how about you?

Lately (within the past few years) I've been drawn more and more to the color orange. It's not a color that somebody would say was their "favorite" but as an accent color I think it adds a certain zing! Inspired by the orange (by the way, no other word in the English language rhymes with "orange"), I created these poker chip pendants. I put copper wire bales on a few of them.

The Magician

Benevolent maker of magic with china blue eyes, his showmanship will amaze you!

Lucky Numbers?
There are times when I'm compelled to place numbers here and there in a collage I'm creating. I don't know why I have to do it but the number pops into my head and I HAVE to then put it in the artwork! Strange because I'm a word person rather than a number person.

The Seeker
Sometimes I make up little stories about my artwork, for example, this one: She's the funky Queen Librarian who is always "seeking" the answer from a dusty tome plucked from a shelf as she flies from ladder to ladder in the stacks! Her name is Hildergarten Flugerburger.

Thanks friends for all of the wonderful comments about the blue and chocolate brown altered coasters in the last post! They were fun to make! Your comments are always appreciated and mean a lot to me.

Orange you glad you stopped by? I sure am glad you did!
