Liberate Your Art 2014

This will be my third round of Kat  Sloma's wonderful 'Liberate your art postcard swap", and as always it has been great fun.

First off I made the same mistake as last year, I sent off 6 different postcards fairly early on and now have absolutely no idea which ones they were!

I have now seen one of them on the Facebook page and the recipient of another emailed me so these are two of the six I sent!

and these are the beautiful works of art I received.

The first card I received was this serene Buddha was from Twistylane Texas 

Next up was this gorgeous mixed media card from Tina who included  this hand written quote on the back of the card.  You can find her on flickr

“Every horizon, upon being reached reveals another beckoning in the distance. Always I am on the threshold.”
— Eugene Smith

This seems really pertinent today as on our walk across the downs yesterday we experienced just this sensation!

Love this self-portrait from Lynne who you can find on flickr 

Postcard number four is this glorious abstract from Carlyn Clark it has the following handwritten quote on the back which I just love

“Creativity is contagious. Pass it on”
— Albert Einstein

Number five is of beautiful sea birds from Annie Kelleher of Crimson Cove Photography with this quote on the back

“There is a fountain of youth: it is your mind, your talents, the creativity you bring to your life and the lives of people you love. When you learn to tap this source you will truly have defeated age”
— Sophia Loren

Last to arrive was Kat's card which was as always just beautiful

Here you have them on my white board all together

and with a bit of context!
