ART FROM THE MAIN HOUSE: Sunday Postcard Art Challenge (01-17-16)

Mandy Chilvers is the owner of the Sunday Postcard Art site and today also serves as our challenge host. She has chosen FIRE/FLAMES as the theme.

The fire image I have used was found on Pinterest and is credited to DeviantArt. I don't dabble much in digital art, so this was a fun "make" for me this week. I printed the image on both a 4x6" index card and glossy photo paper. Both had good qualities, but I like the glossy finish (here) better.



The quote I have used is by Michelle K. and is both short and simple, but I think speaks volumes.

Thanks for visiting today and for taking a moment to leave a message so that I will know you were here.  I hope you will find some time this week to play with us at Sunday Postcard Art.

Cheers!

  5. I LOVE this piece, Kay - both the image and the quote speak volumes to me too. I've lived through a house fire and it turned my in a totally different direction...built from it indeed.

  8. Oh Kay, I've just taken the time (for the first time I must confess, and it's a shame, also a mistake!...) to look at this blog of Sunday's postcards... This is a great one!!!
    I've seen many wonderful mixed media art and endless inspirational postcards, among them yours!
    I can't promise I will enter very often; but from to time, I will think about that!!
    Your card today is wonderfully inspired... Love both the image and the quote you chose, so perfect and true :)
    Mwah!

  9. That's a stunning image and a perfect and powerful quote. A very striking postcard. Regarding your comment about never too much cake. I have posted a picture on my latest blog post so do feel free to decide for yourself. I think family parties are always well endowed with cake. For which I am grateful. Hugz
