I have been busy, busy. I spent most of yesterday with my STASH friends at Terry Grant‘s home. She made a really delicious lunch and we enjoyed chatting and sharing our work and the BOOK!
I have also been busy with my Photoshop Elements class homework. We have been learning to work in layers and layer masks and adding texture, etc. I am posting some of my photos that I have altered.
I am also working on the piece for the juried invitational show. I am trying to recreate some of Portland’s bridges. I don’t really work in a realistic way so I have been drawing them and cutting them out, but not to exact specifications, just a resemblance. It is a bit tedious. I am cutting them from lutradur which I am going to paint in colors that are not the bridge colors – how boring would that be. But, it is work that I can’t show much of until the jurying is over.
Earlier this week, I had the good luck of acquiring a collage by Wen Redmond in Virginia Spiegel’s American Cancer Society fundraiser.
Have a great week-end.
Lovely photos that you’ve made, Gerrie. And beautiful colours in that artwork that you’ve bought.
I love that piece of Wen’s! Had I not been loving on Charlie, I’d have been bidding against you! LOL

Congrats on getting a piece of Wen’s work. By the time I went on line, all were gone. Next year I will plastered sticky notes all over to remind me! Portland has some gorgeous bridges with such different architecture – Hawthorne vs. Burnside bridges. I look forward to see which ones you select. Have a great weekend!
Congrats on getting Wen’s fabulous piece — I have a photo of it in my inspiration binder! Have a wonderful weekend, sweetie!
