As you can see, I've named this treasury on Etsy, "Just hanging out." I love plays on words, and I think this one works. This is my most successful treasury to date. Just looking at it I found it on page 5, and it's not even a day old yet. Just an infant!
I had been looking for subjects for a treasury, and somehow I started thinking about how much fun I had photographing clotheslines in Italy and how much fun I've had painting the two Italian clotheslines that I've painted. So I decided this would be my subject.
I had so much fun seeing what was on Etsy with search words "art" and "clothesline." I found some wonderful things, and I was excited to snag a treasury. Well it's taken me awhile to do that. One time the magic number was down to 336 or something, and I went into the kitchen to work on something - like dinner or something silly like that. I had one eye on the computer and saw the screen flash, but by the time I got to it, the treasuries had already been filled. So this time, the magic number was 347 when I started to stalk the treasury page and wait for the screen to "open, open, open."
Many thanks to MizKatie who offered me access to her blog photo, where she has featured my treasury. Screen shot declined to work for me tonight. She's a fabulously expressive artist so go check out her world at MizKatie .
Please do go look at MizKatie's blog, Miz Katie , and be sure to check out my treasury which can be found on Etsy.com in Treasury under "Just hanging out" . It will expire in two days on December 8th around noon, so look fast.
One of the things people have said about my artwork is that it tends to evoke images of past scenes or hopes of future dreams and destinations in the thoughts of the viewers. Translation: Dreams about Art! This blog will be a launchpad, I hope, for enjoyable experiences for many viewers as I share my thoughts and paintings with you. Copyright 2007/2016.
