Who's work do I follow

Who's work do I follow with avid expectation?
Who gives me inspiration
Who brightens up my day.
Where I go and wander in my exploration?
To find that composition
That will pave the way
To finishing my pages with that satisfaction
That pleases my reflection
Upon my work today


Well where do I go, who's work do I admire and want to emulate? I do love the things that Ruth aka Altered Geisha produces they are so special and really stand out from the norm. She has the knack of taking something and making it a piece or art that I would love to be able to do. I think I would so enjoy seeing her at work putting together her layouts and I for one would love to see them all in an exhibition framed in 3D frames and hung on a wall. 
I also get a lot of inspiration from sketches and Pencil Line is my all time favourite site for this. I have been downloading their sketches for three years now since the beginning and have used them a great deal.
Just recently I have discovered another sketch site that seem very promising Twisted Sketches. They bring out a sketch by Anam Stubbington each week but put a twist to it by adding something that has to be used i.e. chipboard, or monochrome, etc.

I hope you are enjoying Shimelles class.

A place for me to put the pictures of layouts I have done that I am pleased with, to put in the poems I write and to add snippets of things that have caught my eye
