How are you?? I LOVED ...Hellllloooooooo everyone!!! How are you?? I LOVED this TST...what amazing colors right?? First thank you for the feedback on my pieces...you made me happy but you also affirmed that I'm on the right path...thank you!<br /><br />Marcie - welcome! Thank you for sharing this barrette. I absolutely love the work that went into it...the colors and the design are gorgeous and that center stone just takes my breath away. I'm a huge fan of turquoise!<br /><br />Amanda - I LOVE these watercolors! The movement within the pieces reminds me of dancing. I especially love the Landscape...it makes me think of hills and mountains in Scotland (a favorite place of mine). These are going to be magnificent journals...will you please share those with us when you create them??<br /><br />Janie - I mean really?? I am in AWE of the fact that that was the first time you made that butterfly cane...I think it's brilliant and I can't imagine how much more sensational it could be...I'm not kidding that's amazing work. I loved every piece but the butterflies and the Wild earrings stole my heart....you have such talent....truly<br /><br />Althea - CONGRATS on your 3 custom orders...how's it going?? So psyched for you!! These magnets are AWESOME....truly I want all of them...I read a comment calling for a collaboration we shoul do something...magnets, a surfer, hehehee....as always your unique creation inspires me..<br /><br />Aqua - every single one of these is PHENOMENAL!! I sat here for the longest time just letting eyes slide along the lines in your pieces like a child on the slide at the park and bask in the colors....the hand is so great ..I keep looking at my own hand picturing it pulsing with color but my fav is Landscape which is funny because Amanda's landscape was my fav too....those colors remind me of a sunset and that brings me such joy....<br /><br />Marja - you totally outdid yourself AGAIN! That heart is my favorite blend of color...I love the fluidity of it ....and the ring?? Well apparently I am going to be wrestling folks here for it....love it all ...have the most fabulous trip and we'll see you when you come back!<br /><br />Janie - good luck with your move...let us know if you need anything! I owe you and a few folks emails...they'll be coming in a few days...<br /><br />You are all FABULOUS!Natashahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14700445200303617499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1438262482678835889.post-688644405370970162009-09-05T10:24:39.688-07:002009-09-05T10:24:39.688-07:00Now that my eyes are rested I had to come back -

I may just have to break out the watercolors and play with them more! <br />Natasha - what a wondeful "Strike of love" and the play with the kite string - and the surfer girl - yeah - that's an excellent one - do make the surfer girl bigger and maybe do one with a boy on it - ? they need encouragement too! and somehow I'm seeing one or two of those little glass "free to be me by the sea" magnets by Althea attached to it................<br />Marja - bursting with love - its fun, bright and beautiful the way love is - and that red red ring - simple but sweet! <br />Wonderful wonderful creations everyone!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03745918161344486602noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1438262482678835889.post-28941262521795402152009-09-04T21:55:30.812-07:002009-09-04T21:55:30.812-07:00Miss DoodleThang ;) I'm just wondering.

It was around the same time as I posted the response to the bodypainting thing.

But oh my goodness, the gathered up and waiting artistic energy just about exploded, didn't it? I have scrolled through this week's beauties several times and feel like I've had a Thanksgiving feast for the soul.<br /><br />Marcie: are you new to TST? If so, welcome. I do so wish I had enough hair to wear your incredible barrette. <br /><br />Amanda: so much movement and life in your pieces. And the color combos make my skin tingle!<br /><br />Janie: canes fascinate me. How are they made? What are they used for? those butterflies are beyond beautiful. And oh, your "wild things blooming" earrings--wow!!<br /><br />Althea: 3 custom orders??? woohoooo!!!! And your magnets take me right back to some of the best moments of my life, in and on and near the sea.<br /><br />Natasha: I just love your colors and lettering--speaks to the eternal child in me. And OF COURSE the surfer has to be bigger and more colorful, 'cause she is YOU!!!!<br /><br />Marja: oh my. yes, the heart pendant overflows with love. And I love where you have the hanging thingie placed. how big is the heart, anyway? And Amanda and I evidently have to fight over the ring--it has whole worlds swirling in the red.<br /><br />Wow, everybody. What a wonderful bunch of beauty. I feel fed.<br /><br />And I'm already musing about next week's topic . . . only for this group, I'm pretty sure "a little flavor" is gonna actually be "a whole lotta flavor"!!!!!aquamaureenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17368274520999097910noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1438262482678835889.post-38295040087655812592009-09-04T06:56:58.567-07:002009-09-04T06:56:58.567-07:00Wow - I totally missed the deadline!

Oops!<br /><br />And look at this gorgeous work!!! The freedom to choose and the extra time seems to have inspired all of you. I couldn't pick a favorite - I love EVERYTHING I see here.<br /><br />I'm already thinking about the new theme.

I'm drawn to watercolor when I'm not working in glass, and you're fantastic pieces make me want to pick up my brushes. :) <br /><br />Maureen your Dreaming in Color - I dreamed underwater speaks directly to me. I love it!! <br /><br />I'm off for vacation for the next few weeks - sorry I'll miss out but I'll come back recharged and ready to create some more. :)Marja/Glass Elementshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04614062758688438174noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1438262482678835889.post-78857660648779538832009-09-03T21:34:51.054-07:002009-09-03T21:34:51.054-07:00I stopped by earlier and then had some errands to ...I stopped by earlier and then had some errands to take care of and kept thinking I need to get back to TST - <br />So many wonderful creations - they are all just fantastic - and Natasha - do make the surfer girl bigger - but otherwise it's great!<br />My eyes are droopy or I would make individual comments! Love it all!<br />My daugher and family were in town so I was being creative with my grandson instead of creating items! We played Star Wars on the open seas! with legos!! :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03745918161344486602noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1438262482678835889.post-49940614556336910272009-09-03T20:46:00.302-07:002009-09-03T20:46:00.302-07:00As always everyone's pieces are just exquisite...As always everyone's pieces are just exquisite. I really loved all the watercolor in this sweet treat. It's really wonderful to see how differently artists use the same medium.<br />Natasha, your journal covers are a delight! I agree that your surfer might want to be a bit bigger to really 'go for it!!' I really love the hair! WooHoo!!<br />What mediums are you using?JanetDavieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15004231421278090678noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1438262482678835889.post-45034241862242004272009-09-03T10:51:00.348-07:002009-09-03T10:51:00.348-07:00so beautiful...

I love that the next theme, for me, will be about satisfying the deeper hunger of the soul...and I've always adored that song. :) There's another version that I enjoy--can't think of the artist's name now, but I'll share it later if I think of it.<br /><br />Marcie: what a "treat" (booo, I know) to have you with us this week. Your barrette is just stunning. I love the cracked look of the turquoise--strong yet vulnerable. Wonderful job.<br /><br />Janie: whoa, that's the first time you've created a butterfly cane and it looks THAT good?! :) I especially love your "then suddenly it came to life"--those arteries are so evocative. Gorgeous.<br /><br />Althea: these magnets are so peaceful...you made me long for the sea! How wonderful that you were overwhelmed by custom orders. :)<br /><br />Aqua Mom: Oh my. Can I trade you something for the underwater piece? Please? Probably not, because I'm sure you love it as much as I do. That's one of my favorites of yours to date. I think of stained glass, mosaic, the ocean, the sky all at once. Your others are beautiful too, but that one vibrates my heart.<br /><br />Tasha Doodle: oh, I just love the LOVE floating up into the heavens. So whimsical and dreamy. And YES, surfer girl, how wonderful to incorporate your recent dream-living! I love it--definitely agree about a large, wild, and free big surfer--but other than that, it's fantastic.<br /><br />Marja: ooh, those colors! I want your ring...even though I'm not into the vampire stuff, that gorgeous drop of blood-red is perfect!<br /><br />Can't wait to read more about our flavors...... :)Amanda Fall - Sprout editorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04099642812544000458noreply@blogger.com
