art card of the day



Before we put the house on the market and packed up all my art supplies, Chris and I would regularly get together to make art. Mom joined us a couple of times, too. On more than one of those occasions I borrowed an exercise from my collage instructor. I provided each of us with the same set of five different papers. The task was for each of us to create at least three unique collages using those papers. We all arrived at very different results while employing the same palette of colors and textures.

The one above is mine from one such workshop. [3.5" x 2.5" / $5.00]

Here is one my mother created using the same materials:



And another made by Chris:

I really like the first one!

Hey, if you can get your bro & mom to do lots of the work for you, and you sell the cards, and you don't give them a cut, you could, in effect, set up a sweatshop of slave labor! I'll bet THAT'S a career opportunity you never considered before.
