Found Art Tuesday and Big News!

Ok, so I’m a week late with my found art piece. This is for last weeks theme of “Circus”.


This piece was drawn in pen, coloured in pastels and pastel pencils, and then shiny things were stuck to the front.


The Big News
I received confirmation yesterday that I will be exhibiting with Anita in August at the local library. Yes, you read right, I will be exhibiting!

Anita is my crazy friend who has such faith in me that she asked me to exhibit with her before I’d even bought my first paint brush! I say “asked” but she hasn’t really given me the opportunity to say no! I had kept this news to myself thinking that the organiser would object to displaying the work of someone who had only started painting in January, and that it would all fall through, but obviously not. All I can say is, I’m glad I have more paintings to choose from than those from the Violent Death series! There will be a press release and posters will be displayed in the libraries of the surrounding towns. *Gulp*

I need to check the available space, but Anita has suggested I display a triptych, Red, and She’s on Fire. I need to decide by the end of this month, so that the library has time to take out insurance. Any thoughts? (Apart from "don't do it!" - I've already had that thought myself!)
