love is all we need

 When asked if I want to play along with sending a little love around the world, somewhere in the world, I can never say no. I received this little heart puzzle with an address of a person I don't know. For me to paint/decorate to my liking, so I thought it would be cool to do a double sided one, so the recipient can have 2 little tiny challenges and two sides to look. It's flying now, on it's merry way, to bring a little arty love somewhere else. Hope it arrives soon ♥

Now you all know I like the traveling art idea, I currently host the 2013 TAP (the traveling art project) and there are 3 canvasses flying all around the globe stopping here and there to receive a little art input. For next year there already is a TAP 2014 set up at the Trodden Path. Free to sign up, so if it sounds like something for you too, come over and join !

NEXT NEWS ITEM !
 
...and I will be running this from One Little House as well, so another reason to quickly join the gang there...I have been thinking about this for quite some time now. I stumbled onto the traveling painting videos ages ago and was intrigued by this concept. Somehow I never found out what it looked like in the very end. Maybe it all took too long, or maybe not everybody posted videos. Anyway, I thought of throwing this idea onto your work benches and see what you think. There will be these guidelines and I have tried to keep it all "do-able" for everybody:  
T.A.P.2013 will start in January here at my studio in  
Middle Earth (you know.... New Zealand, but since Tolkien's books were made into films here we are all a little Hobbit-mad)  - Anyway, I will start with the first layer on an A4 size canvas board (this size is not too bad to send around) I will photograph and/or video it and blog (and Facebook/Twitter) about it and then I 'll post it to the next recipient in the last week of the month at the latest.

So the next artist will have it for February, will put her (or his) layer on and make a picture or video of that stage and send it to the 3rd artist etc. etc. The last person in December will then send it back to me :) and I will make sure to share it in an AMAZING blog with all your names and links of course :) All players will also receive a print of the finished painting at the end as a token for their time and effort in the project. If this sounds like a cool idea to you, message me, obviously there are only 11 more spots to play this game :D

Who's up for it ?
