The first half of this year looked a bit like this. Full flip through on the YouTubes, blog post coming soon. [Links in profile] ...... #sanitythroughart #artjournal #studiojournal #streamofconsciousness #mixedmediacollage #wordsandcolor #madebymixy

This is what’s absorbing my time while the studio is too hot. Layers on layers. This has been on and off for years. It’s not about it being done, it’s not ‘getting there’ , it just IS. ——————— #wip #textilearts #fiberarts #itsallabouttheprocess #itsjustwhatido #layersonlayers #sewingtime #madebymixy #appliqué #embroidereddoodles

Accidental art. This is the unintended art that happens when you’re a messy painter 😉 my table is covered in lining paper so it doesn’t matter what gets spilled or oversprayed. And these organic patterns grow out of nowhere over the weeks. Sometimes I cut bits out for future-me to use as collage bits or backgrounds or as ideas. Art is everywhere, folk! 🙏💕✨ #purpleandblue #accidentalart #serendipity #artiseverywhere #studiotimes #dropsheet

While my studio is too stuffy to work in and while my energy levels are all frazzled by the unexpected heat, I’m finding other ways to move color around. (*im not complaining!* I love that we’re having a real summer this year, but I’m not used to keeping up with normal life in temps 10 -15 degrees higher than usual!) I’ve been working on this wall hanging for a really long time. Years. I pick it up and add some more, then set it aside for weeks or months. It waits. I come back and add some more. These last couple of weeks I’ve spent my evenings curled up by the open door, enjoying the breeze, and stitching more bits and more doodles. #textileartist #wip #summerevenings #allthecolors #fabriccollage #fiberart #appliqueart #patchworkwallhanging #madebymixy
