Guest artist, Beá Meira, finishes my book!



Thanks to Beá Meira http://cadernosdabea.blogspot.com/ my book is mostly finished. This is an image of the sunken USS West Virginia during the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. I can hardly wait to get it back. I will post it after I do a little work in it. It will be the first book I've had finished.

José, I still have your book. I will pass it on next week.

lets go fly a kite



In Ramires book...I wanted a happy image. Something that made me happy over the summer was going to a kite festival. I haven't caught it very well , but the colours and the ridiculous figures were wonderful.....I hope you like it Ramires....
and I have to say that painting with acrylics in these tiny books is so difficult........

Joyce's book



Attempting to approach the series art style I don't use my acrylics and the results are not so spontaneous (I Use water soluble pencil and Indian Ink pen ) is unusual to me work with black as structure and separated colors.
Joyce, sorry for my late, the construction of my new studio gets delayed, and I have my material in a bunch of boxes in my living room... I'm more crazy than usually.
I hope you enjoy it.

Next round: Country books.

I hope that you are all interested in the country theme for our next round of  books. I am thrilled by how my "USA" book has turned out. The theme seem may seem childish, like an elementary school social studies project, but I think it was a huge success. My book is filled with comments about the sweet and the bitter of my country. I found these pictures on Flickr today, by Ward Zwart.  In the color of each country's flag. Heh.
