May Flower Challenge - Day 16, ATC cards and studio

Here in a little lonely room I am master of earth and sea, and the planets come to me.

Can you believe that the month of May is more than half over!  I guess time does fly when we're all having so much fun.  Well, I really want to put you all on a mission today.  In addition to checking out all the beautiful flowers on Lori's Blog Challenge, please take some time and check out Cindy's Mixed-Media May to read about some wonderful mixed-media artists and to see their wonderful art. 

For my flower challenge today I'm continuing with my Artist Trading Cards that I made for this month.  Here are the other two that I created...



After my friend, Anne, said she would love the yellow flowers in a large enough size to hang on her wall, it got me thinking about doing a series of flowers similar to how I created the yellow ones.  I have got so many ideas going on right now but just not enough time to get everything painted and down on paper like I would love to do. 

One of the projects I just recently finished was redoing my studio to make it more efficient for me to work in.  It just wasn't working out for me before.  So I had ordered a new work surface and a small cabinet with drawers from IKEA.   Here is the new look...
















I hope to finish showing you some of the closer details tomorrow.   I haven't changed my older photos in the STUDIO tab yet (top of the page), so you can still take a peek and see what it was like before the changes.
