Smash Book -Esprit

I took a French newspaper fashion page and glued it on as a background. I was still into 'faces' mode so sketched in the face on top of the model. I like how the face of the model is visible through the face that I drew. I like how this page turned out.

Brother John got a kick out of the mail art I showed you on the last post. I posted on his FB page. I told him when he actually got it in the mail he could show it to his "force." Maybe they'd keep him on or maybe they wouldn't. In the meantime, here's a few more faces I've been doing in the mornings. I am beginning to think they're looking the same, but then I think they all seem to take on different personalities. I think it's time to get out my mini, somewhat flexible wooden model and add bodies to the faces.

Hope everyone doing ok. Thanks for visiting..................jo

I 'm Going to Arrest Her

My twin brother decided at 50 yrs old he wanted to do what he'd always wanted to do, and that was to become a police officer. Why? I do not know. I made this for him. On Tuesday I shall post this on his Facebook page, maybe embarrass the" badge" off him. Ha ha ha ha. I found some spelling tests from 1964 and incorporated them into the card- front and back.

I rather like it. In fact, I think it's pretty darn clever. Notice on the backside of the card the word for #5. Thanks for visiting..............................Jo

In the Van

Just playing in the Moleskin in the car...........of course

My heart and prayers go out to those persons who have been displaced and devastated with the latest storm. I have some family in lower Manhattan who have have been struggling. I found myself a bit anxious, as I'm sure many did, with the strong winds and rain, although, not nearly as strong as the previous storm where I found my self taking sudden shelter in a downstairs closet. No damage this time. It is good to see the sun today and feel a bit warmer temperatures. Thanks for stopping here...............jo
