Onion layered
you
dark then pale
stripped back
'til the white juice runs
yet still
you keep
your secrets

i wish i was
so far away
on some far distant shore
i'd cast my troubles
in the deep, deep sea
and be troubled
by troubles
no more
oh just to sit
and watch each wave
and wave
each wave
a dieu.....

I haven't been out for two days.
The snow is giving me cabin fever.
All the shops here are closed, well almost all and it's so quite, no traffic, so few people walking around.
It's like someone has stuffed cotton wool around my house and I can't hear properly.

I'm looking forward to a BIG thaw!

Woodstock Mailart Project

This collage opposite is one of my contribution to the above mailart call.
I'll probably send a painted or drawn one as well.

All submitted works will be exhibited in the Oxfordshire Museum, Woodstock, Oxford and later held in the museum as part of their collection.

Prints will be in my Etsy shop.....soon.

The ACEO ~ Art Cards, Editions and Originals Playing Card Deck is a collaboration of 54 international ACEO artists who will have their artwork appearing on a fully functional deck of playing cards.

Each artist has been assigned a specific Number card, Face card, Ace or Joker where their artwork will appear along side their ebay username.
I've been a member of this great group for a few years now, and although I'm not a regular poster I was delighted to be included in this project.
They will be popping up here and there for sale later in 2008.
The crow picture here is my contribution to the deck.

For those who don't know:
What is an ACEO?
The acronym ACEO stands for Art Cards Editions and Originals. An ACEO is a 2.5" x 3.5" work of art (an original or a print edition). It is always this size, no exceptions. These highly collectible cards are as varied in theme, composition and materials as are larger works of art.
If you're interested in getting your hands on a deck, at avery reasonable price....let me know.
