This week I have been looking at some blogs that re-cap their favorite projects of the year and I thought it was a great idea. Then I got somewhat depressed because I didn't feel like I have been very productive this year.
I figured I could find at least a few projects to highlight, and went through my blog posts for this year. Looking through my posts actually made me feel like I had accomplished a lot, especially since we moved to a different state this summer and we have been spending a lot of time on home renovation projects. So here are my highlights...
Here are my favorite experiments from 2014:

Gelli printing |
These are just the best examples of these techniques and art pieces. I really enjoyed gelli printing this year and have a home decor project lined up for a gelli printed collage. I also would like to complete a lot of my unfinished projects in 2015 as well. The basement renovation should be complete around the end of January and then I can move into my studio space and unpack all my supplies. We also will be done with home renovations for a while, so I hope to have more time for making art as well.
Wishing you all a great New Year!
