RAK Fluid Art

Have you been doing some soul searching to find your word of the year? I really don't like the whole New Years resolutions thing, but I love a Word of the Year! There are so many possibilities with that word. So many interpretations...so many areas of life that it can be applied to... Are you ready for my word? Evolve That's right, after looking at 100s of words, lots of soul-searching, BAM, evolve hits me and I know that's my word. If you haven't found a word yet, don't worry. Just be open. It will come. To remind me of my word all year, I made a mixed media piece out of metal tape and alcohol inks. See how my design evolved !

It's 2017, are you ready for a new year? I'm ready! My first order of business is to post regularly on this blog. I will be posting on Tuesdays...Tuesdays with Tammy! It will mostly consist of whatever artwork I am working on that week. I also want to start a Use Your Tools post where I dig out some unused tool and experiment with all the different techniques we can use that tool for. If any of you are like me, you probably have many "must have" purchases of art tools that you are not using to their full potential. We need to change that! The current pieces I have been working on are for a class using collage with a tack iron. It has been so fun! I'll keep exploring this idea in my mixed media pieces. Here are the pictures: Make time for art!
