Be True and More ATC's

Mixed media (collage, ink, acrylics, graphite) on 6 x 8 inch cradled wood panel

This is a big theme in my life right now. Being true to who I am. Searching every little nook and cranny... all of me. Authentic. Transparent. True. Whole.


I have finished up my table full of ATC's from last week (except for the word ones... those are always ongoing). They were really a lot of fun. The girls are collaged with fabric as the first layer, which made them a bit different to paint. Click the image to see better pics on my flickr page.
Today I'm linking up with Paint Party Friday, Artists in Blogland, and Sunday Sketches. Check them out for some other great artists.

    I can't believe you did these on fabric. It must have been very difficult and they are beautiful!

    These are fabulous - so details for such small pieces of art and with the added difficulty of painting on fabric - lovely!
