Another Stamp Art Piece

My two stamp art pieces were done at totally different times on different paper. I don’t remember doing the other one at all, but I do recall this one because I’d just gotten the ballerina stamp for Christmas and maybe two months earlier, I’d gotten the unicorn circle one and the rainbow on the clouds. There’s also a teddy bear with a band-aid on his leg that I think I got for Christmas, too.

I’m thinking this was done some time in either 1985 or 1986. The other was slightly earlier. This was before I discovered beads and proceeded to make 50 pairs of earrings one week only to take them apart and recycle all the beads the following week…for, like, three months. I suppose that’s why I have so few drawings. I was too busy beading.

Also of note… None of my drawings are of actual things. They’re all abstracts. My brother got the talent to draw real things. I got the talent to make designs. Not much has changed, either. I still can’t draw my way out of a paper bag, but I can barf a bunch of color down and have it look at least somewhat pleasing to the eye. I’m betting it was my love of color that helped me while designing stage lighting. I was very particular in my color choices.

Let’s call this one Stamping Art.
