a polaroid of my contribution to our project
One of the best things that has come out of me having a blog has been the opportunity to collaborate with other artists. I am always so excited when someone want to work on a project with me. I have received so many amazing things and gotten so inspired by how our projects have inspired my partners.
My most recent collaboration is with Jen of Painted Fish Studio. We each found a vintage photo that spoke to us and sent it to the other person. We in turn took the picture and came up with a story of sorts with whatever medium we chose. I guess it was kind of understood that we would do a collage of some sort. It was so much fun and I am absolutely thrilled with what Jen sent.
Jen and I already have another project in the works. This time it includes some words and of course my favorite kind of camera.
So for any of you who have wanted to ask but haven't. Yes I'd love to collaborate with you, what did you have in mind?
Finally, I did want to say thank you to typepad, I am honored to be a featured blog on their homepage today. If you are a new reader welcome, I'm glad you stopped by.
What a cool concept and even cooler results of your collaboration! I wish I was even one one-hundredth as creative!

They are both fantastic. What a fun project.
Someday, I would love to collaborate with you on something. Maybe in the winter. I have no idea what but will put on my thinking cap.
