Romantic Found Poetry ACEO's


I have three new romantic "found poetry" collaged ACEO's listed in my Etsy shop! Shown above is one of them.

Each ACEO includes my own lines of poetry, clipped from recycled book pages. "Found poetry" is when you think of poetic thoughts, then find individual words in printed text, such as an old book, magazine, newspaper, etc....cut it and arrange it to what you want to say.
These are romantic, light-hearted, OOAK, original, collectible cards...no prints will be, nor has been made.

Summer's Where?



We had three or four days of sun with temps in the 90s, I remember them well. Just last weekend the AC was a necessity. Now the heat comes on and it's in the 50s. I really enjoy warm summer nights. These dunes remind me of the Lake Ontario shore I visited each summer as a child. Able to stay up later because school was out, we'd play in the dunes until the sun set.

Morning Still

I wanted to test my skills at a fast/loose style and choose one of perhaps thousands of photographs of the British Columbia landscape that I have taken.

I am not entirely satisfied with the beach area, but I think I'll let this one sit for a couple of days and see if anything in particular jumps out at me. All my new Daniel Smith paints (Cadmium Green Hue, Rich Green Gold, Quinacridone Gold, and Asphaltum) were used in this one as well as some old favourites (Cerulean Blue, Titanium-Zinc White, and Sap Green). I kept the palette fairly simple... but not too restrictive.

So...Come here often???


This is a digitally altered photo that I took of a pair of gulls , it reminded me of a male going up to a female in a club and using an old one liner on her...LOL. Hard to tell if she is impressed or not though :-)
