Art Weekend

Inspired by some art gallery visits I was in art mode.
I decided to FINALLY make a framed art collage on my wall.
I had just gone to the cute fabric shop "Peapod Fabrics" and picked up some fabric squares to frame.
I went to a few thrift stores picked up some cheap picture frames and went home.
I used my sketch book to give me ideas of what to frame. Some things I created on the computer, printed and drew on. I made one picture collage with one of Kevin's old Tom Sawyer books.
printed on book paper and drew on top of that. ETC.





 The three fabrics...



and what I have so far ... haven't decided the arrangement yet...

The beauty of San Francisco

I get caught up in the monotony of daily life. I have to remind myself I live in an amazing city. San Francisco is full of culture whether it's art, music, food or events there is so much to do and see.
Here are pictures from a two hour walk. Starting from my place and only 10 minutes away from my apartment is the "Land's End" coastal walk. Nothing too fancy, photos taken with my convenient iphone and it's beautiful! I even spotted dolphins off the coast!
