Inviting you on a Creative Adventure (and a Weekend Give Away)

A Tiny Ripple of Hope (mixed media on plaster)

Do you like this piece?  Want to learn how to make it?  Want to win it?
Then stop by my blog this weekend and join me for a Creative Adventure!  Starting at 1:00 a.m. Saturday California time (that's 9:00 Saturday morning for my U.K. friends), you'll find instructions to visit eight different blogs, each featuring a different type of creativity activity.  After you visit the blogs, return here and leave a comment about something you learned or liked, and I'll enter your name in my weekend giveaway. I'll pick a random name, and the winner will receive this mixed media piece. Weekend give-away entries close at 9:00 p.m. Sunday, California time.

The title of this mixed media piece comes from a quote by Robert Kennedy, whose birthday is today:
Each time a person stands up for an ideal,
or acts to improve the lot of others...
he sends forth a tiny ripple of hope,
and crossing each other from a million different centers of energy and daring,
those ripples build a current that can sweep down the mightiest walls of oppression and resistance.


See you tomorrow!!!

    I absolutely love your mixed media project and the quote is awesome. One of the other Creative Adventure projects that I really loved and did a "ah ha moment" for me was at Happy Bunny Designs, making a grid of images on the wall. I am so going to have to do that.
