Still Life

Over at The Three Muses Challenge the theme is "Still Life", keeping in mind that "less is more". I drew my jade plant. Tore it out. Glued it to a paper bag. Done.

The basic elements. Well... OK... the glue and a brush are missing.

    Welcome to the Three Muses, Miss Molly!! You sound like my sort of person (slapping the fish around, throwing the flowers together). Sounds like my reply when someone asks me for one of my recipes. Because I am a slapper-onner, a thrower-inner and dolloper of condiments and a hoper for the best, I am not a reliable recipe donor.
    I love your still life and I love your sense of humour. Come back soon!!
    Cheers from Marie aka Ozstuff.

    How wonderful that you drew the plant! Combining physical art with the digital world is always fun.

    Welcome Molly! I also live in Maine, however, unfortunately, no where near the coast (in the mountains in Western Maine). I love your submission! Great job with your drawing and the paper bag reminds me of some I have gotten while shopping in some of those adorable little shops in some of the little coastal towns! Very fun!

    Welcome to the Three Muses, Molly, and thank you for your very refreshing take on both the still life itself and its construction. You made me smile.

    Hello Again to you, Molly!
    Just wanted to thank you so much for stopping by The Tearoom and taking a peek around! I do have some fun there and you know you have to keep doing fun things to get yourself through the winters here in Maine!!! I also wanted to thank you for your page of art challenges! There's lots to keep me busy there for a long while!

    Wishing you a good day (stay warm!),

    Betty

    That is a beautiful sketch, and a great way to display it.
