June 30th

How are you? Long time no blog. I know but I've been busy. I now am attending American Intercontinental University plus RL and work.

Today is Saturday

Really busy

Worked on some papers for the Traci Bautista atc swap which is due nov 15th last night.

Friday at Red Lead

Today at Red Lead artist Nancy Curry will be having several demos at 6:30 pm

Hope to see you there!

Tip-Ins

I've made a concerted effort to work on my art. So this past Sunday I started work on two separate tip-ins for two separate projects.

The first one is for Red Lead's Favorite Colors and the second for a member of the Bad Baby's group which is on 50's.

For Red Lead I chose the color red -- no particular reason other than that was the first paint I pulled out of the drawer, LOL. I have to make 32 copies for this tip in and find something appropriately cool to add as some embellishments that won't cost me an arm and a leg.

When I get a chance I'll attach the pictures for these.

MIssion: Possible The Open House

Today is Open House here in Media Services. We've been doing our thing for Faculty and Staff today from 11:00 am - 2:00 pm.

Then we'll have lunch, and go to the Art Annex' Open House.

Strange Mood Sunday

Having come to the conclusion that I will never buy another Lexmark printer I went out to Office Max and returned the reburbished catridge and looked at the printers at the store.

I left and thought about it for a couple of hours then went back to Office Max and bought an HP inkjet printer forgot the model number but it's Wi-Fi ready which means once I get hi-speed connectivity and get rid of the awful dial-up I'll be swinging!

I printed out what I wanted really late last night for the collage from hell -- I'm not totally satisfied with the layout but with the printer I can do some rearranging and adding and subtracting -- it's funny how you can start on a collage/assemblage and have it "sit" and then realize that's not the direction you want to go in and start a fresh arrangement. I like that.

Tammy's Art Blog: Mad & I try out collage (art recipe for fun)

Sunday May 21

The weather has been really cool and pleasant. Last night I worked on the art collage from hell. The priner wouldn't print the image correctly -- using an old version of Photoshop - it's either the work space or the printer. It sucked.

So I try using the other printer I got very cheaply at Target with my laptop. Big mistake. No drivers. Went online took an hour to download the driver for the now Discontinued POS printer. Sucks. Then the refurbished cartridge didn't want to cooperate. My laptop recognizes the printer but the printer won't print. The POS.

Art is not for the faint of heart. Undaunted I decided to read some slash. OK if you don't know what that is don't look it up. It's for adults and well....just if you don't know don't ask me. I'll deny it.

I'm not kidding. Seriously. But it does involve Mulder and Skinner

And you thought I just did artwork? LOL>
