CLOSE YOUR EYES AND DREAM
~ Annabelle 2012 ♥
A new year and a new batch of art dreamed up many moons ago.
Recently the local library in North Gower asked me if I'd be interested in showing my art work and doing their artist of the month, of course I obliged happily. Too shy to show my picture next to my artwork that my daughter M took.... still my work and name went out there; a very good thing.
It's been some time now since I last participated in Paint Party Friday but here I am now. For many personal health reasons my muse and energy wasn't there for many months but hopefully I'm back on track, I better be, because now I have another artist of the month this coming October 2012 and that's when my book will most definitely be done....wish me luck!
The main work of art I am so very happy to show case this week is my painting for my storybook I'm working on.
Done on wood panel board, wood burned, and painted with ink and acrylics.
♥ HALLOWEEN TWILIGHT ♥
Twilight is turning dark and grey,
The Spooks are coming down the way
Tis Halloween and this night they say,
The Witches will dance and sing and be gay.
Meet Cassie and her dog named Boo
Of course my usual spider and web is never too far and the little saying I've written along the bevelled edge of the painting with some gilded dandelions, stars, wheat and cattails.
Need to take some pictures of the writing...too dark to see here.
I'm still not sure of the Witch's name although the title "Cassienadognamedboo" is my Etsy shop's name which hopefully I wouldn't tire of too soon : )
And here is more art work that I've done in the last month...
♥ The Woods are Lovely Dark and Deep ♥
Robert Frost...."Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening"
A Piece of RoseWood given to me by my father, of course what better way to use it than to in-still one of my very favourite poem excerpts ....a reminder of the spiritual calling of the wild wood and immortal poetic words of Robert Frost.
I think I'll make more of these....so many poems I adore and maybe some of my own.
♥ Snowcat ♥
handmade from recycled wool blanket and hand embroidered
♥ Who the Owl ♥
Again same as the SnowCat
Blue Heart ♥
Charlotte in Love ♥
Cherry Blossoms ♥
Blue Bird of Happiness ♥
Pumpkins and Hoot the Owl Under the Tree of Enchantment ♥
....Don't you just adore this tiny miniature weeping Pussy Willow?
Last Fall I asked the farmer down the road from me if he wouldn't mind if I gathered a few pumpkin stems from his field..... Happy he obliged... ..Thanks for sharing ; )
Whimsical Pumpkins
And finally a Rose wool felted vine garland ♥
Adore the twine covered wire I found for it
And now enjoy the words to the song sung by no other than one of the most romantic crooners of the thirties in the UK
Al Bowlly ~ Close Your Eyes ♥
Close your eyes
Rest your head on my shoulder and sleep
Close your eyes,
And I will close mine.
Close your eyes,
Let's pretend that we're counting sheep
Close your eyes,
This is divine.
Music play
Something dreamy for dancin'
While we're here romancin'
It's loves holiday
and love will be our guide.
Close your eyes
When you open them dear I'll be near,
By your side
So won't you close your eyes.
Until Next Time Happy Creating
Annabelle ♥
