Someday, the altered art you make today will be
old, faded, falling apart, and someone else will salvage the bits and use them
in new altered art.It's the best that any piece of art can hope for

Made from a Milkshake Powder box. Gessoed (is there such a word?) and then painted with Acryic paints. Then randomly stamped with stazon, triple embossed with Debi Moores Metal Magic. Decorated with a UTEE 'Sun' which I made from a mould I took from a plastic sun keyring from a Christmas cracker. The tiles spell 'TIME' and are from an Art Mould alphabet. The metal around the bottom and top right corner is from a tomato puree tube, it is a lovely colour, I washed it in the dishwasher which tarnished it... a very happy accident!
I am a terrible hoarder, but it can come in useful. The Chain is a belt which came on a skirt I had. The 'oblong' on the side is from another belt I picked up from a school jumble sale.. keep your eyes open and view everything you see with altered art in mind....... thats my motto!
