Wycinanki is the paper cutting craft of Poland. The designs are created by folding the paper and cutting out the shapes from 2 layers of paper with an x-acto knife- you end up with a symmetrically balanced design. The Polish like to do what they call the "tree of life" so we decided to adapt this idea and do Christmas trees. We had a lot of fun.</span></div>Barb Sailorhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01632810668704142394noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8237100461868330789.post-65950422653997479762010-08-17T20:46:00.000-04:002010-08-17T20:46:46.418-04:00Patty's Yupo Painting<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjNju8coLYmSDJvm0tfrPzeBT63CGw_WiPQiL5uvLELSE-I0ZdZrspuhvOGWgLABycKnTm1L6aif-pAmNESF6-oiQ0h3XFUvPPl4QymFKzj6Nj87xN0kYlk57Mhw0GlX4_GN7fLVFQmAxrG/s1600/Patty's+YUPO+painting.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="245" ox="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjNju8coLYmSDJvm0tfrPzeBT63CGw_WiPQiL5uvLELSE-I0ZdZrspuhvOGWgLABycKnTm1L6aif-pAmNESF6-oiQ0h3XFUvPPl4QymFKzj6Nj87xN0kYlk57Mhw0GlX4_GN7fLVFQmAxrG/s320/Patty's+YUPO+painting.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #c27ba0; font-size: large;">This is a painting created by Patty. It was painted on YUPO paper - a new synthetic surface that was created for the printing industry. Many artists enjoy painting on YUPO today because of the beautiful way the paint mixes on the surface of the paper because it is not absorbed into the paper and lays on the top. This is a lovely painting and beautifully demonstrates the possibilities of painting on YUPO.</span></div>Barb Sailorhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01632810668704142394noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8237100461868330789.post-54868791198181961342010-07-15T16:41:00.003-04:002010-07-29T13:25:37.592-04:00PAINTING PEONIES<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

<div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif; font-size: large;">Yesterday, The Muses did a very interesting exercise in oil. We set up a still life in the middle of the room that looked pretty good from any angle and then covered it up. We had 2 wine glasses (different), and Turning Leaf wine bottle and 4 corks. After setting up our oil paint...s, etc., we uncovered the still life and stared at it for 10 minutes, trying to memorize the details, the spatial relationships, the shapes, and the colors the best we could. When the 10 minutes were up, we covered the still life and began the painting. We painted for 1 hour before we uncovered the still life. It was amazing how well everyone did. I am posting the WIP paintings after 1 hour. The finished paintings will be posted when completed.</span></div>Barb Sailorhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01632810668704142394noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8237100461868330789.post-70437757330400020082010-04-11T20:55:00.001-04:002010-04-11T20:56:44.444-04:00FINAL MONOCHROMATIC STILL LIFES <br />
