It seems that I am always doing something new lately! In the Paper_Trader Yahoo group, I joined in on a 6 for 6 swap. The challenge was to create ATC's featuring eggs, nests, and/or birds. This group welcomes the members on their homepage:
'Paper
Traders is a friendly online community of artists from around the world.
We nurture and value creativity, embrace new ideas, products, and
techniques yet also value tried and true methods of artistic expression.
Our projects consist primarily of paper arts, mixed media collage,
artist trading cards, altered art, assemblages, collaborative journals,
mail art, and more.'
Since I have been expressing much of my creative thoughts in the Mixed media technique, this group is a perfect home for me! As a member, you are encouraged to participate in the swaps and challenges they host. Personal trades need to be done privately as this is an ART technique sharing and swapping group.
I encourage all varied skills in Art to try joining in a group or two. You meet wonderful artists from all parts of the world! Someone from Singapore recently joined us! How exciting is that?!?!?!
