Comment: Thank you so much for the ATCs! The banana drawing is definitely Surrealist because it is floating upright and casting a shadow. I like when things reference René Magritte or Giorgio de Chirico. I think you are onto something with the abstracted garlic bulb and it has overtones of Constructivism, see this image: http://www.artfortune.com/images/pages/constructivism_pevsner.jpg I was pretty literal! I just did a soft realism coloured pencil of a pear. ^.^ I love that you made them arty. ♥

Comment: Tess you have outdone yourself, 2 for 1 nature watercolors, now which side to display? I think mushrooms first then daisies......Beautiful Thank you!

Comment: Tess, this rolo is fantastic. I love the raised cut-outs and your watercoloring is lovely. I have it proudly displayed in my file on my craft table. I am a huge leaf fan, so it was spot on for me. Thanks! The little tatted piece is very nice. I tried tatting once or twice, but it's SO intense I couldn't do it without major anxiety. Funny, because I usually thrive on the little minute details, but not with tatting. My hat is off to you. Thanks for the nice swap!

(I am paralyzingly arachnophobic, but I'm lucky enough to be just rational enough to not be really bothered by fake or drawn or cartoony ones - except those big rubber realistic ones, ugh!) You are very talented and I can surely appreciate a second piece of fabulous art as an extra! <3
Response: Sorry about the spider. I used to be that way about them myself. Now only the real ones bother me. Thanks for the heart and all despite the spider.

Comment: I feel so lucky and greedy to have gotten you for three watercolor swaps in a row! These are such precious little paintings! I just love the ants-eye-view of Fall Leaves in Rain Puddle! It makes me feel as if I've snuggled down into the mud with them. I remember how the leaves look exactly like this in Washington when they're making the earth richer...the whitish spots, the green vein and all the browns bring back happy memories. Thank you Tess! <3

Comment: Got your Zentangled "E" today. I noticed that it is shaded in different places. How did you do that? Thank you for also sending a "B"!
Response: I use a blending brush pen by Prismacolor. A tiny bit of alcohol on a Q-tip would probably work. just lightly rub it across ink you want shade. Also use any very light color ink pen. I like brick white by Prismacolor for shading also.

They come in a variety of sizes I use 0.05 , 0.25 and O.1 for smalller work and the larger 0.2,3,7 for larger work or heavy lines and fill on smaller pieces. They are also available in colors.

Believe it or not, I do collect Tarot decks. I have maybe 7 decks, but I am partial to only one. Anyway, thanks so much. Funny thing is, when I touched the journal I felt a calming effect from it. You must good energy. I hope we get to be swap partners again so I can also share with you.
Response: Im glad you like it. Everyone I know who owns a Tarot deck or oracle deck owns at least a half dozen even if they only use one. I bought a journal just like he one I gave you for myself. I haven't finished decorating it yet. Mines going to have a horse on it. We can do a private swap any time we want. I will friend you :) Hugs, Tess

I find the challenge of making art in such a small space interesting. I don't do collage style ATCS so I just mount the Inchies in interesting groups. They sorta went with the Aquarium theme so I sent them along. Enjoy, Tess

Comment: Wonderful selections. Love the ATC's - am I suppose to pass the Chocolate one on? Neat idea for a swap or PIF. Thanks so much.
Response: Eat the chocolate one and keep the ATC. Its what I call an "interactive ATC" the fact you eat the chocolate leaving the wrapper is part of the atcs look. Please enjoy it.

Comment: What a wonderfully sparkly hedgehog! I love the ATC. You put so much personality in your little hedgehog. Angel (my hedgehog) nursed me through chemotherapy by sleeping in a prickly little ball on my chest when I came home exhausted after a treatment. She and I spent many peaceful hours together, so you can see why hedgehogs are special to me. I think Angel must be all sparkly herself now. I miss her.
Response: Im glad you liked it. Hedgehogs are so cute I had to draw it. I also didn't want to just draw or paint one so I came up with the metallic paint pen idea. I've never owned a hedgehog but I find them facinating. Hugs, Tess
