Dragonfly by Suzy Pal Powell

One more little Camper for the October Workshop! This is 8x10 stretched canvas.
These are fun to do but hard! Especially the smaller ones.  The small ones are harder to do because of such small pieces.

Dawn's Early Light by Suzy Pal Powell

This is late! I meant to post it July 4th. I did it in celebration of the 4th (as well as a challenge from Laurie Pace)  But...we can celebrate America and being an American each day. I know I take it for granted.  How is it that we were blessed enough to be born here? We could have been born in another country, looking towards America. I love America! My prayer is that we will pray more for our country.
I still have one or two spots left in my collage class coming up July 25-26th. grab a friend and join us!

There is a motel in Denver city, 15 miles away, and a new Holiday Inn 30 miles away in Brownfield.
The  B and B here is full.

Time to Party by Suzy Pal Powell

The summer that Keri and I got hung up in Memphis due to a weather delay, we went down to Beale Street. We had Bar-b-q on the patio...THEN, we were scared to death by a zombie march! We had never seen anything like it! What a shock to be eating and all this start marching by. We went into some little shops and I found this wall hanging and took a photo of it.

I painted it a while ago and didn't like it so In preparation for a demo, I got it out, and collaged part of it.  I left the bottom below the instruments just watercolor and some of the piano keys. It will have to be framed because it is on watercolor paper. I will go ahead and put it under plexi too. 

I am doing a demo in Portales NM Monday the 17th. If you are close, come for a visit!
I am teaching a 2 day workshop here in Plains March 28-29, if interested email me.

VW Bus by Suzy Pal Powell

I spent a few days tweaking and changing up on the VW.  I didn't like some of the background, so I changed that, changed the color of one bike, and finished them.  It is 18x24 like the Woodie, and the Red Truck. I took some photos as it progressed with my phone because I forgot my camera, and they didn't turn out very good, so I am just posting the finished photo.
Just a reminder of my torn paper collage workshop coming up March 28-29th. If interested email me.

Woodie by Suzy Pal Powell

I was ask to do an old Woodie with the torn paper collage.  I researched it, and was surprised at the history about them! It is really interesting, that they turned into cars for surfers! You should look it up and read about them. It is spelled Woodie and Woody, but Woodie was the first spelling. I can't believe some of these old relics were really made with wood.  I always thought it was just decoration.

I plan on having a torn paper collage workshop March 28-29 in Plains. If interested please let me know as soon as possible, as I need to make plans for a building.
