Well, I have been trying to rebuild my mad-making skills. And to do that I have been going through my “Make It Someday” file on my laptop. These are cool things that I saw while in bed for the last 2 years and hoped to try out someday.
That someday is here! I have been feeling better and better, and while I have a couple of paintings going, I decided last week, I needed something to do that would be finished in a day. Enter stage right…Sharpies! I have a spring coat that I have been wanting to decorate with sharpies for some time and thought that a trial project would be a good idea. I scanned the closet for a couple of candidates…A knit dress and a dressy blouse that looks great on, but is a bit dated. (Note the shoulder pads and material) I haven’t photographed the dress, but here is the blouse.

I have had a picture of a Swedish wallpaper design for sometime and thought about doing something like it in my basement, but I couldn’t wait. So here it is! Scroll down through the close ups and see how it looks. The Sharpies bled around the lines making a sort of gray that I really like. I started using that to enhance the look of the final product. Thanks for looking.
