Pure Pleasure

I wanted to produce a piece of work just for fun, for no other reason than enjoying the idea and the process.

To this end I have been playing with collage. Here are some of the results.

What fun you seem to be having with awesome results I might add.

Any artshine pages on your desktop I wonder?

Yes there are and I'll have at least 2 in the post by the end of this month. I'm trying to catch up, but needed to do something just for me, hence the collage, which is joyous.

the collages are great and I agree, it is good to do something just for fun with no other purpose sometimes. Well, maybe some of these could become Artshine pages??

I was thinking lasat night as I headed off home that some of them would work really well with some stitching on them. I'm pretty sure that they will look fantastic with hand and machine embroidery and will be up to the standard of everyone else's work.

Please dont get hung up on comparing your work to anyone elses. You are good at what you do and I look forward to seeing and eventually having one of your pages in MY book!!!

I often send you a comment or email and get a message back saying it's not been sent. But I see here my previous comment did come in so no idea why I get this feedback. Glad it's not true.

Hi, Lynn, I'm not sure why you aren't getting your comments through, but are you using sam.dexter13@gmail.com as my email? That's my new one which I can access even on my phone. I'm really looking forward to using some of my papers in the travelling sketchbooks, and hopefully some will be in yours!
