Elixir of the Gods! My Mixed Media Mail Art.

I love receiving mail, with the exception of those dreaded bills, of course. The picture above is what I received in the mail last week. It looks great here, but so, so much better in person. I LOVE it. Thank you so much Cameron.
I recently came across the blog of lovely Cameron at ‘Paint Myself Pretty’. On discovering her blog I landed on this ‘Elixir of the Gods!’ post and instantly fell in love with her art piece. I headed straight over to her Etsy store and brought it. It now is up on my wall in my studio. What do you think of it?
I also brought another art piece recently, but will save that to show you in the next post.
You still have time to enroll in Life Book. Classes start January 1st 2012. I can’t wait. I hope to see you there.
I hope you are organised and have all your Christmas shopping done.
Big Smiles,
Kyles =D

A mixed media piece from The Secret Hermit – Micki Wilde

I brought a beautiful original mixed media art piece from Micki Wilde, otherwise known as ‘The Secret Hermit’, from her Etsy store. I was so excited when I saw the parcel from Micki in my mail box today. I thought it would take longer to get to me, so it was a great surprise. I really like it before I bought it (obviously), but in real life it’s even more fabulous. I now LOVE it. =D
Micki is a very talented mixed media artist from the U.K and I have been following Micki’s work for quite some time now. Every Monday (I think it’s Sunday in the U.K) morning I wake to have a lovely coffee while perusing her latest post, to see what wonderful work she has created over the week. It seems that every time I have fallen in love with one of her creations, I head over to her Etsy store to find that it has already been sold. This has happened so, so many times. Thankfully I came across this little beauty and couldn’t hit the ‘Add to Cart’ button quick enough. It was such a relief when my purchase went through.
I thought I would show you some of my favorites from Micki’s vast collection of works. I hope to one day own some more of her awesome work.

Thank you so much Micki. Your artwork is now up in my art studio, inspiring me.

I hope this post inspires you all.
Happy creating,
Kyles =D

Mail Art for Me

Look what arrived in my mailbox today. Woo Hoo!!! I brought these ATCs/ACEOs from whimsical Artist Megan K. Suarez. I have been following Megan for a while now and could no longer resist the urge to purchase some of her work. I love them and thought I would share them with you all. What do you think?

Do yourself a favor and pay Megan a visit. You will be glad you did.
Wishing you a creative day,
