New Stuff


I'm a little late getting this post done. I left these two pieces a few days ago and didn't take time to post them. The first one has an origami kimono/shirt and says "Put on a garment of praise". I left it in my locker at the Y and two days later it was still there. I moved it to the curtained changing room and the next time it was gone. The other piece is done with a tin can lid for a frame. I found the little boy with the popsicle and green tongue and it just said summer to me, so I put letter beads that say "summer" on the hanger. I left it at a Texaco station, on the gas pump. People need a little something to cheer them up at the gas pump these days.
Enjoy your summer!
(Having trouble getting the second photo to load. Will try later)

Art at the drive-in


Saturday night we went to a local drive-in theater called the Hi-way 50 Drive-in and I left this piece in the restroom. I designed the wings and altered the girl's photo and put them together with the type on Photoshop. Then I painted the background and mounted it and attached a piece of yellow netting using the letter pieces. "Recapture Your Imagination" just seemed to fit.
We saw Talledaga Nights and it was good for a few chuckles. The children in the movie were very rude and crude and that was disturbing, but by the end they cleaned up their act. The second feature was Snakes on a Plane. We left after 10 minutes of that. It was a pretty far-fetched plot. Not worth staying up until 1:00 in the morning to see.

Oops!




Yesterday, as I was checking out the settings on my blog site, I discovered that I had the comments set on "Members only". That could have something to do with why I have not gotten any responses from the people who find my art. It is now set where anyone can leave a comment and you can choose to do it anonymously. We'll see if that helps any. I know that I would be hesitant to become a member of something I know nothing about, just so that I could leave a comment.
I left two pieces in Columbia yesterday also. One was left on the bubblegum machine at the bank again and the other one I hung on someone's antenna at the Y. I hope they found it before driving very far because it could have blown off.
Today I may go to Lewisburg and I'll try to come up with a quickie to leave there.
Have a blessed day!

Rock Drop


I left this colorful rock that says "play" on a metal post outside of Office Max. I hope that someone found it before it rained. The rock with the little face, I left on the window sill of Columbia Chiropractic Health Center. The rest of the rocks are waiting for an idea of what to do with them.
Have some fun today!

Survived the Kayaking!


I made it home in one piece. Hallelujah! Just enough white water adventure for a 47 year old. There were 11 of us in our group; my husband and I along with 9 others ranging in age from 15 to 25. We kept up with them and amazingly we are not too sore today.
Here is a photo of the pieces that I made in the car on the way. I forgot to take some with me when we went kayaking so the only ones that got left were the one on the left and the one on the right. The other photo is of the elk with one hanging on his antler. Sorry it's a bit blurry. I was trying to take the picture from my car without looking too conspicuous. The other two pieces will probably be left in Columbia somewhere since I'm not planning to go anywhere else soon.
Be blessed.

Chattanooga Found Art

Well, I am in Chattanooga, TN visiting my son and daughter-in-law and we have just come back from eating dinner at Macaroni Grill. I left an art piece in the restroom on the hook in the stall. After dinner we went to the Sportsman's Warehouse and out in front there were some sculptures of a deer and an elk. I left a piece hanging on the elk's antler. I also have two other pieces that I made on the way here that I will leave somewhere tomorrow. We are going kayaking on the Hiawassee River I think. I don't have a way to post the pictures while I am here so I will post them when I get home.
Have a blessed day!
