It’s Cold outside!!!

2010, monotype print / Linda Germain / December 7, 2009

Today I was making Christmas things at the farm. Cold!!!! in the Barn. Tonight I am looking forward to meeting with my artist’s group. I embelished a box – with prints and collage bits. That was our shared assignment for the group. Since I did not really have a box that I wanted to work on, I used the small box that a deck of card comes in. I figure I can put some ATC’s in it. Enjoy!

Today I played with a quilt and was not happy with any of the designs that I came up with. I am also decorating a box for my artist group meeting tomorrow.
