Willowing ATC May 2010

This month the featured theme was 'Little Houses of Love'.

For this piece, I wanted to use a subject that most people dont think of with any love nor even affection. Snails seemed to be an ideal subject, the majority of people are not overly fond of these little creatures with their spherical exoskeletal home, although the abundance of them in my garden probably encourages the hedgehogs so I should be grateful they choose visit me. 

 

'Little Houses of Love'  

(Size 2.5"x 3.5 ") 

worked in mixed media and included acrylic, ink, newspaper.

For my second card I chose the theme 'Goblin' .

I have been having somewhat of a running battle with these little people for some time now - perhaps I could appease them by dedicating a piece of art to them?

- perhaps my favourite medium.
