Why art kits....

What are they,

what do you do with them?

This is a question that I get asked all the time..

In the last few months I have giving some thought to this question.

Gewgaws of inspiration I think would be a good description,

that invokes a STRONG desire to touch, explore

and envision some artwork yet to be created.

*Some of my kits are a place to store those saved bits that I just can't bring myself to use or that I have hidden away in a bag on a shelf.
 

*While putting these juxtapose kits together I am always in search of more treasures to add.

You know that little something extra for color and texture the

candy for the eye.. .. ..

*These kits are like love letter from a time gone by that tells a story of trinkets saved.

*Some are grown up version of a child's collection of things; you remember that box under your bed

of rocks and pine cone and your best friends secret notes....
