I am back with art

As many of you know, i have had a difficult year and the last few weeks i have not done very much blogging. My interpretation of blogging is 'Sharing' and i love to blog hop and to be inspired by the wonderful art of my fellow bloggers. I have done little of this as i have been needed at home a lot due to circumstances.
Adam my son is now in his first week after his op and doing well. I am thrilled and although we are still helping out with the children etc, i feel i can get back into my art a little more and my blogging too. I shall be slowly but surely checking in with you all so if you havent seen me in a while at your blog, you will soon :)

One of my favourite talented mixed media artists is the lovely Marsha Salver Jorgensen from Tumblefish Studio's. Marsha and I had a brief discussion a while back ( virtually of course ) on backgrounds and collage. Marsha enjoys the collage and i prefer to make the backgrounds ... dream team or what !!! hehe. Well what we decided was that we would both enjoy a collaboration just for fun. I sent Marsha some atc backgrounds and Marsha who lives in USA worked her magic on them and returned them to me. Imagine my thrill to find not only these amazing collage fairies on the three backgrounds, but also a stunning collage in a frame that Marsha made for me. I cannot tell you just how much more amazing they are when you look at them physically rather than a photo. My camera could not do this beautiful collage justice.
Marsha i feel honoured to have worked on these art pieces with you and i will treasure them and display your beautiful work with pride. Thank you.

Here they all are. Three atc's - backgrounds by june macfarlane & collage by Marsha S Jorgensen. Framed collage by Marsha Jorgensen

Thank you Miss June! You are too kind! This was so fun! Now remember, you are to do a little more to these, however you see fit, and then send one back to me! (no rush - I'll be gone the next few weeks, so take your time) What a great collaboration we make!

I am so relieved and happy to hear Adam is doing well. I have thought about you so much the last few days. You're all still in my prayers and I hope everyone pulls through just fine, including you!

Brilliant news about Adam - and I am sure he will go from strength to strength.
