I thought to make life simpler I would find photos of 7 pieces of work and keep them in a folder on my computer so I could post one every day without having to search for something.
This was a piece I made on a Hilary Bower workshop.
This piece is called The Prophet's Mantle and is loosely based on Exodus 28.
This piece is probably called Alpha & Omega and was made at a workshop taught by Yvonne Morton.
This is a mixed media piece from one of my journals.
This is a collage I did at a workshop with Seth Apter. I still haven't decided whether it is finished.
I made these tags at a workshop at The Bramble Patch taught by Angie Hughes.
And this is another mixed media piece that was pubished in Art Journal Kickstarter.
You may remember I talked recently about what I had learned from my month of sketchbook work in February: what did I learn?
Seth Apter wrote this excellent article: 7 ways to own your own voice. His 7 ways are Play, Step Out, Play Favourites, Obsess Less, Keep a style file, Journal It, and Four Score.
What themes could I see once I'd chosen the seven pieces of work shown above?
1. layers
2. pastel colours mostly or neutrals
3. lots of 'white space' - even if it isn't white
4. text
What themes do you see in these pieces of work?
Thanks for stopping by.

Nice to see some of your work together here. I see blocks of pattern in lots of your work, especially noticeable in the first three and the tags. I like this.
