My submission for Illustration Friday's "Multiple" is a dimensional painting called "The dish ran away with the spoon" and deals nicely with the subject of multiple dwellings. I have constructed the kitchen idea a few times and each is slightly different. One version was called "Sinkronicity" and was part of a show called "Five Easy Pieces". I love making kitchens and scenes that require furniture. It is made from wood, foamboard, salt, string, clay, acrylic paints and resin. Happy Illustration Friday everyone!

I am amazed, impressed and delighted at and with the multiple dimensions of your creativity and artistic talent and skills. You create so many different beautiful things. Your mind and hands, they are precious but the happinees that you project with your art must truly come from within.
That's so cool! It reminds me one of my favorite X-mas gifts when I was a little girl.
It's adorable, Val... happy IF to you, too! :D
just found your site, love your work, this is awesome, so clourful and gay.
I can't believe I've missed your last 3 posts :( You're in my favorites...how could I have done that? Anyway, they're all fabtastic! You have such a way of putting "delight" in everything piece you create. And have you turned fifty?? I was hoping not to miss that! (Or are you 49?) Either way, happy, beautiful birthday to you and thanks for bringing such whimsy and light into so many lives ;)
As I always say, you can't trust dishes. ;-)
Finally getting over here for a visit. How are you Val?! Love your offering for 'multiple' - that little dish is just the cutest!! Ok I'm off to go do some catching up on your work! :)
Your work is so much fun!
I'll bet your studio is full of cool stuff to work with!
the love that you put into your art is inspiring :) and i like the nursery rhyme with that line "the dish ran away with the spoon"
Sinkronicity made me laugh! I love this interpretation of the theme. I don't know how you do it. I'm struggling again. Groan....
You are never out of ideas! I am crazy about the colors and love the 3D aspects!
