Welcome to Art Tart Talks. A place for all things artful. A collection of short blog entries on what I am creating, how I am creating it and what is currently inspiring me as well as the occasional life post. I post challenges I am participating in, tutorials and ideas on how to use supplies creatively.

Siren Song
Here is a page from one of my altered books. The background was gel paint then I embellshed the piece with vintage velvet wallpaper, vinyl letters, cardboard, sheet music and a chinese scallop shell that I found when I was a kid.
Obey the corgi
The background for this page is masking tape placed randomly and then liquid watercolor brushed over it. Then I stamped the words obey the corgi in white stazon ink and then using the eraser end of a pencil and white acrylic paint for the dots.

Paul Carlile
JD Roth and Tom will be heading down early afternoon to help set up.
There will also be a service @ Ascension Catholic Church (76th/Yamhill) this Saturday, January 24th This will be non-denominational even though it is a Catholic church. The time is still to be determined, but will probably be 11:00. Please let Tom Stewart know if anyone would like to speak. Paul's family welcomes your stories and would be beneficial to ALL of us for healing.
For those who are just learning about this, Paul took his own life last Thursday. He had apparently been beyond sad for quite some time, but only let a very small circle in on his true status. I am sure this comes as quite a shock to most - including myself.
I hope to see you all this Saturday.
