here's a new collage i created on sunday. still enjoying all the wadded tissue paper layering that goes into these 3-d pieces. this is the third in my little folk series. it will be listed on my etsy soon. if you're interested, please just let me know.
we looked at a rescued dog last night, thinking of possibly adopting it. she was a cutie, part beagle and part jack russell terrier. we were tempted but she had way too much energy for us, particularly since we're gone for long hours at work. we'll know when it's right but definitely a mellow sweetie with lots of huggable personality is perfect for us.
time to snuggle up with a blanket and a book. i'm reading margaret atwood's the year of the flood. it's quite intriguing. finished reading the world according to garp by john irving yesterday. i read it decades ago and enjoyed it again the second time around.
hugs and have a great evening!

This is a wonderful collage! Love the colors. I know that you will get just the right little doggie. I'm like you though, the less energy the better!
I actually would like to read Atlas Shrugged because I never read it and I hear it is very timely for today. Curl up now, Julie!
Love Margaret Atwood. I'm reading "Morning in the Burned House", a book of her poetry.
willow, my fave atwood book is the handmaid's tale. i loved it and will read it again some day soon. i was not aware that she wrote poetry.
martha, thanks and hugs! i will check out atlas shrugged. i love book suggestions!
What beautiful colours perfect for autumn.
I have a beagle, she is lovely.
Love your new collage! I loved reading The World According to Garp. I read back when I was in college and to this day it is still one of my favorite books. I loved the Handmaid's Tale too.
Julie - this collage is gorgoeus! Am loving the 3 dimensional aspect of your art,
And I know that when the time is right the perfect doggie will come into your life. And how blessed they will be!

Julie, this is beautiful! Tell me more about this tissue paper technique. As far as reading, I'm still consumed by the Twilight series. I'm halfway through the 4th book!
Vous êtes incroyable ! Il n'y a pas une seule création de vous à jeter, tout est absolument extraordinaire, très beau, au risque de me répéter, tant pis, j'adore votre univers !
Bonne continuation !
