Map Art Lab


















Jill Berry's new book is out. It is so fun, full of 52 ways to explore maps in your art.  I highly recommend it.




















I've only the one page to show.  I have been working on weaving this week.  I started this with liquid watercolor and then played on the page with stamps and stencils.  The bird appeared out of nowhere.  Maybe he is the bluebird of happiness.

Linking to Paint party friday.
