I get to open the gallery with two gorgeous pieces!

First up, this adorable watercolor of @Mountains_and_Clouds’ favorite chicken, BlyuBlyu. Look at those inquisitive eyes! I love her! Thank you, Sara!

Next up, a magical forest scene from @WiccadWitch! The texture and details are so lovely and those mushrooms so dainty and perfect. :heart_eyes: Thank you, Lacey!

I haven’t been too much in the loop of “normal” swaps (since the old site); not sure if there’s a separate gallery (edit to add: what the heck? how did ai post in the gallery? Ow my brain) (edit again: Ooohh okay, so it was added here from the other one. I need a nap), but I received a really amazing piece from @Tapestry !
Apologies for taking a little time to post- I was working off-island yesterday.

Its a faux fresco on a cool burlap background and I LOVE IT SO MUCH OH MY !

@Tapestry also talked about the process on this post!

I love it so much! (and also feel inspired to step up my experimentation game!)
Thank you!!!

From @geekgirl, a fabulous mixed media piece.

Collage bits, a stamp, paper dolls, and a quote! All my favorite things. Thanks Carlee!

I received from @Smmarrt yesterday and finally managed to get a half-decent picture of the piece. It still doesn’t quite do it justice, but behold:

It’s wonderfully bright, but also shimmery. Thanks so much, Susan!

A very happy mail day. Two 4x6 pieces arrived yesterday.

First from @pioneer9, a lovely mixed media piece.

And from @megwell - a Gelli print with a lyric from Daniel Bedingfield (don’t know it, will look it up).

Thanks so much. Always a fun swap. Thanks @Kwality570 .

I received a beautiful mixed media piece from Tapestry!
The layers and all the tiny details are amazing!


She also sent this funny Far Side type card and really cute stickers :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:
Thank you so much!!!

Ack, I’m already behind on comments. Great work so far everyone!

@Smmarrt, if you do go looking for the song, it’s “Don’t Write Me Off.” I think I meant to title the piece that and then was in such a hurry to label them that I skipped titles altogether.

I recd three fantastic pieces!

First from @megwell


This looks so cool! She used an ad for the base. I think it worked perfectly with the sentiment.

And from @Tapestry


Beautifully painted detailed bird and tree. His eye especially.

Lastly from @pioneer9


Another gorgeously detailed bird. I love the texture of the feathers and the contrasting colors work so well.

Thank you pals! Fantastic work.

Apologies to anyone whose dog just lost it. It was probably the ultrasonic squee I let out upon receiving my first Kwality monster!!!

A shot that shows the turquoise color a little truer:

I haven’t settled on a name yet. I’m getting kind of a carroty vibe, so maybe something like Carl? We’ll see. @Kwality570, I’m beyond thrilled; thank you so much!

But wait; there’s more! Not to be outdone, @curiousfae sent me this mind-blowing diamond art piece that she created the pattern for! Shown here with the magical variegated rainbow tissue it was wrapped in:

On the tilt to show off the shimmeriness and font better:

Kelli, I can’t even begin to wrap my head around this. Amazing work; thank you!
