After MANY years as a frustrated wannabe artist I was able to begin doing IT after quitting my jobs in education. I did infuse the arts into my teaching at every opportunity. Now I dabble in the fiber arts as much as possible. I also enjoy being with family, reading, playing poker, walking my dog, Beethoven and teaching quilting arts and other areas of the fiber arts.

another day
Last night I made lots of apoxy sculpt leaves to add to the vinery around the bottom of the base. The yellow base was too pale and dead looking so after painting the bottom part red I washed the yellow part of the base with a watered down gold metallic paint. I gilded all of the vines and leaves with a mixture of metallic gold and gold glitter paints and a little water. I sponged a little of that paint onto the rest of the base, also. MUCH BETTER!!!
