One a (week)day: Day 89 - Signs: Capricorn

053107-signs-capricorn.jpg

Piece number 89(05/31/07). Again with another sign. I think I will be taking a break from this series for a bit, I am starting to be uninspired. The goat just did not not have the same ump as the others did while making it. Though it could also be because it was over 90degrees today and I am trapped in a house with no air conditioning.

6″x 4″:: $45 unframed original piece, $75 framed original piece. Once the original sells, limited edition prints will be available at $25 (unframed)

Piece number 88(05/30/07).Today I went back to working on the signs. I have wanted to do a lion for some time now, so this served double duty.

One a (week)day: Day 87 - Pregnancy: week 22

052907-pregnancy-week22.jpg

Piece number 87 (05/29/07). This is my sister at week 22, with my 2.5 year old niece - they both are getting bigger. The previous piece I had to pose her to get a glimpse of her belly.

This one is not available for purchase.

One a (week)day: Day 86 - Cars

052507-cars.jpg

Piece number 86 (05/25/07). Today’s piece is based on the theme from Illustration Friday of ‘Cars’. This was finished at 11;59 - just under the buzzer. At 11:30ish I saw I was not going to make it and made some modifications to the original sketch - but I think it turned out quite well in the end (even with some shifting after glueing).

6″x 4″:: $45 unframed original piece, $75 framed original piece. Once the original sells, limited edition prints will be available at $25 (unframed)

–UPDATE– Original has been sold. A limited edition of 100 giclee prints are now available for $30 ($25 for the print and $5 for USPS Priority mail) INTL customers please email me for shipping costs. Also framing is available for an additional $30. All prints are on an art paper with a hand-cut signature.

One a (week)day: Day 85 - Signs:Taurus

052407-signs-taurus.jpg

Piece number 85(05/24/07). I am exhausted today - had problems concentrating. It took me 5 tries to get the signature correct. Taurus is an earth sign and the ‘official colors’ are pale blue, green, and mauve so those are represented.

One a (week)day: Day 84 - Signs: Aries

052307-signs-aries.jpg

Piece number 84(05/23/07). Well I think it is obvious again where this idea came from. No real reason I choose Aries today though. Aries is a fire sign which is why there the flames on the left. The ‘official colors’ for Aries is red, white, and pink so those are represented as well. Now my husband is an Aries - and he just shook his head at this color combo.

sorry about last night (5/22/07) - medical Day

Sorry about not doing a piece yesterday. I developed a headache at about 11am that never went away, I was also sensitive to light. I never made it into my studio and spent the night in bed with a cold washcloth on my head.

One a (week)day: Day 83 - Signs: Pisces

052107-signs-pisces.jpg

Piece number 83(05/21/07). Well I think it is obvious where this idea came from. I thought Pisces was appropriate for today - last night one my fish (a dragonfish) had a wound on it - it appears our ginormous plecostamous gave the dragonfish a hickey - it is the strangest fish related thing I have ever seen. We are giving the tank treatment and right now everything appears to be good.

I have done research on the signs to get different things incorporated. This (and scorpio) are both water sign which is why there is the wave-like detail on the left. The ‘official colors’ for Pisces is silver, pale green, and pink so those are represented as well. I do not follow astronomy, so all this is new to me!

051807-sign-scorpio.jpg

Piece number 82 (05/18/07). Today’s piece is based on the theme from Illustration Friday of ‘Signs’. This was not the first concept that popped into my mind - but I am happy I chose this route. I may even do the other signs as well.

One a (week)day: Day 81 - Rotary

051707-rotary.jpg

Piece number 81 (05/17/07). For an unknown reason to me, the word “rotary” was put into my head today. The word kept popping up over and over. This was the first thing I thought when visualizing “rotary”

the art

All my artwork is made of paper. It is only created using paper, glue, and patience. The works on this site represent the pieces that I am attempting to create each weekday. These pieces are available to purchase and once an original is sold prints will become available. Other work can be viewed on my main site - www.sagworks.com. Larger works are available to purchase as originals or prints through sagworks.com. I am also available for commissioned pieces.
