Ornamenting, Penning & Artistry
Sorry, but you are looking for something that isn’t here.
Rue Lafayette No. 33 is a place and story of autumn color, winter cold, spring lateness and summer flowers. It is a land of bats and birds and beautiful embellishments all carefully glued to the landscape of this blog. Here you will find ornamenting, penning and artistry created in earnest by me. Enjoy your time spent here and please consider returning at any time.
The work you will find here is many years of accumulated writings, sketches, art of all mediums and the desire to share and showcase time well spent. Through the years I have had many blogs at different places for various reasons and now find myself here. If by chance I repeat a photo, or piece of art work - please just enjoy them. It isn't done with any malice or with the intent to fool.
Some of the art work found here is older and dates back to the year 2001. I found altered art by accident while searching for something new to do in my spare time. I started exchanging and making my own postcards and then found the world of altered books. I have remained on this incredible journey for almost ten years.
Since I can remember I have always enjoyed opening a new box of crayons, the smell and creamy consistency of white glue, and collecting paper items along with books. As I grew older, paint in tubes intrigued me along with the sound of stiff bristle brushes applying color to the white canvas.
Art has sustained me and saved my sanity more than once. Over the years I have met wonderful kind hearted people and feel I have learned many techniques from the best of artists.
Art frees open my soul, the light and dark sides of my personality coincide in the same space for the moment in complete harmony, I am only truly alive as I create. Through my art work I can only hope I inspire others to reach these places of contentment.
My name is Patricia and I would consider myself a mixed media artist and writer of stories, and poetry. I enjoy altered books, artist trading cards, collage on canvas. making dolls, sketching and reading.
I hope you find something here that will inspire you as I have been inspired through the years.
I live in Upstate, New York in a lovely village called Avon. I am the proud mother to six lovely children.
