Well I feel like I’ve let this nice little class just slip through the cracks. 😦 When I turned my calendar to this week I realized I’d not sent reminders, blogged or even posted on my Facebook page about it. As a result I have no one signed up for it as of this writing (Sunday night). If I can tempt you into signing up I need to know by the end of the day tomorrow/Monday so I will have time to gather all the supplies and be prepared Wednesday evening. SO….
You create, select (or even bring) small items then assemble them into a unique, miniature piece of abstract art. The cost is $55 and includes all supplies plus the shadow box frame! Minimum of 2, maximum of 8 participants for the fun class. Class is held at ArtSplash Gallery in Carmel, Indiana from 6 to 9 p.m.

As promised yesterday, here are the last three new “mini art” pieces that I made while I was on my artist retreat last month. It’s been fun doing some of these smaller pieces after being away from them for a while. I hope you are enjoying them as well! The piece shown above was the one that was selected by the owners of the artist retreat to keep & display in the studio/apartment. It’s fun to think of leaving a bit of me there, as I know I took a bit of there with me! Here are the other two pieces that were made the same day:
Both of these pieces are on display at ArtSplash Gallery in Carmel, Indiana. They look awesome hanging in groups on your wall or sitting on a shelf and they also make great little gifts!
Yup, yup, yup…more today and then more tomorrow to finish out the week and the new mini art! Here are the two other pieces made the same day as “mini #71” that was shown last week.
During my recent stay at Blueberry View Artist Retreat I was able to create several new artworks, including six of the “mini art” pieces I’ve been making over the past few years. Before I began assembling much of the art I spent time just making the smaller pieces that would be used as part of the artwork. Something that I hadn’t done before was to use ink to color small pieces of glass. I had fun trying different color combinations and came up with a nice selection of pieces to work with:
glass pieces, colored with ink
I also made more aluminum pieces that would eventually be covered in ink too. One of my goals for this retreat time was to play with letters, words, quotes, etc. and so I brought my collection of metal typesetting pieces.

I used some of them to stamp letters & symbols into the aluminum prior to coloring it. I took several images of this stage of the process, thinking I can use the images in some digital art next time I have time to play with Photoshop!

Here are a couple images of some pieces after they’ve been colored with the ink:

Of course eventually I did begin assembling the artwork from all these parts & pieces, the first of which (mini art #71) is shown at the top of the page. I also had some spares left that came home to my studio with me – a nice beginning point for future creations! Look for images of the other new minis in upcoming posts, along with several other new pieces.
