We're All Mad Here' Indeed we ARE! wooohoooo jump onto the bandwagon of wonderland!-it's a tad over populated but we can squeeze in more surely? Good gawd I'm spending WAY too much time online! I can feel my waffling about to start...yep...here we go..So much time just melting into the screen ...I have SO much to DO..So I'm going to post here once a week ..or so & do my VERY best to comment on all your lovely blogs. So sorry if I've not visited you ..I do look & read and oooh & ahh but I don't comment as much as I should,as much as I'd like to! Myself & Jim are still working on 'PAN' the furniture piece...we're surveying counter balance stuff a the moment ..very technical stuff yes ehem...it's a heavy piece you see..we have to 'stop sticking on clumps of wood ffs -this thing could kill you!'I say....but we 'NEED to counter balance ffs' Jim says.
This is a painting I've just finished. I painted my wonky version of The CC & used various mixed media to add interest ie antique wire rimmed specs -securely wired to the back frame; vintage wallpaper 20's -a gift from my pal Alicia Altered Bits, vintage 50's magazine cut out of an eye -the right one (the left is handpainted-as is the rest of his face) gold leaf & 1920's music manuscript papers.
Secret Sunday
:)Delirah to say that I'll be one of the artists featured on *~The Altered Page 'Secret Sunday'~* this Sun 7th March. It's a fantastic inspiring idea of Seth's that offers to all who are interested, a visual gallery with lists of artists' work secrets, techniques & info. I heard of it via Jo over at The Crow Road. Both Jo & Alicia have also been featured on Seth's Secret Sunday.I think it'll be week 15 this week so if you haven't been then I advise that you get yourself a pen & paper!

Secret Sunday sounds interesting I will be sure to take a look. There is a lot of wonderland stuff at the moment but if it's good stuff I don't mind :-) Your Cheshire cat has an appropriatly mad look, the eye is very effective. I don't watch much TV just Movies when I am in the mood and so I can enjoy blog hopping in the evening.
ohohoooooh, i love him ever so much!! and i lovelovelove that you used my bits of wallpaper in there. :) how fantastically fun! i've been starting a wee gallery of things made from things from my shop -- might i add this? that page gets just over 14000 unique visitors per month, so it could bring you new admirers. :) if not, i do understand.
damn. i am just loving him! if only i didn't have evil clients and had a pocketful of monies -- my home would be filled with fantastic art like yours!
loves to you, sweetness. and happy day!
Hi Rainey! Your mixed media creation is fabulous! Love the added specs! Congrats on your feature too! Have a wonderful day! :)
Glorious grin! Blessings dear.
What a lovely smile.

Oh that's one evil looking puss! I love it. Congrats on being featured on Seth's page too. x
I am so looking forward to Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland. And these pieces are most definitely getting me in the mood!
Hi Rainey - had to pop on by and check out your latest. Alicia told me you had used some of her gorgeous vintage wallpaper and I just love the way you have used it in this glorious piece! I am currently supposed to be in my studio doing arty stuff but I've been sidetracked all night by the likes of you, ha ha! Ahhh well, we have to get inspiration too! It's easy to get addicted to being online, isn't it!!!
I don't think there's anything wrong with jumping on that particular bandwagon - can't wait to see the film. Why not be inspired by the inspiring?
Cheshire cat/Catwoman/James Joyce glasses ,Oh, but it's crazee, delightfully so.
Wonderfully loverlie, that cat of yours. Love, loves it!

I especially love these! I'm all Alice these days, too! My tags for a recent swap are on The Marmelade Gypsy (you can get to it through Chopsticks)-- I think they drop down a post tonight, but will still be there!
I LOVE your Cheshire Cat!!!!
Do a drive by past my blog, I have a little somethin' somethin' for you.
What a creepy cheshire but I just adore the 3 dimensional effects! I'll have to check out Altered Page, congratulations!
