these started with packaging material, then thinking about the fragile things we try to keep safe by wrapping them up then on to things get dinged no matter how careful i am....... they are on 10x10 box canvas. i am happy with the egg (overlay is rna/dan with the question "the chicken or the egg?"), will add a few more coats of paint. am pretty happy with the earth too, but wonder if i got too cute with the bandaid on the heart? anyway- look forward to your input- thanks- marianne

I love your work. Very creative and interesting. I didn't notice the bandaid on the heart until you pointed it out. I like it, but yeah, it might be considered too cute compared to the rest (which I think looks very professional). Michele

i think they're done- again, love to know what you think! wow -just looked at them side by side with the first post and they ended up a bit more distressed, but i like that because it fits in with where i started about wrapping things up & trying to keep them pristine, but it never quite working that way-

...btw...my (really talented) artist daughter said she thought that they are wonderful too...and that though you could not make copies of them...you could sell each one for alot! She said I could tell you her opinion.
