After spending forever trying to plan something new and ambitious for the outside of the box that's going to hold my biggest magpie deck, I decided to go with something more simple and familiar.
Still tough, because consistency in drawing lines is tough, but easier than the original plan. #witchsky
I have friends who argue that all foods are either a sandwich, a soup, or a salad. Personally I prefer a more complex taxonomy based on the number of sides enclosed by bread, but I get where they're coming from.

A few days ago I finished my new shadowbox for charm casting! I use a shadowbox to contain the charms so none fly away when I drop them. This box has a design for a monthly or Wheel of the Year casting right on it, or I can insert a board with a different design on top of that.
It's the weekend closest to a personal holiday of mine, so I went for a walk in the park. I saw the ducks below, a squirrel, deer tracks, and a fleeting glimpse of something that looked groundhog sized but had a long, fat tail more like a squirrel's in terms of proportions. No idea what it was.
Progress on that project I shared earlier in the week. It's not "bad" but it's not my style. So, as I said, it's going to get a treatment to make it more subtle, and next time I'll do things differently.
This isn't coming out as intended - I should've tested all of the colors together before starting. But once I paint/color the rest of the cells, I'll probably cover it with a layer of clear gesso mixed with a little white gesso, to mute and soften everything. Then I'll have a base for the next step.
oh it's Thursday! let's do show and tell Thursday: show me something you made or something you're working on! quotes and replies are both ok, and everything counts
This is the one I made. The base was made by someone on Etsy; if you search you can probably find 'em. It was untreated; I used acrylic markers and acrylics to add color.
And it's the perfect size for the shadowbox I use to keep my charms from flying everywhere when I drop them!
