"I do believe in an everyday sort of magic...the inexplicable connectedness we sometimes experience with places, people, works of art and the like; the eerie appropriateness of moments of synchronicity; the whispered voice, the hidden presence, when we think we're alone." Charles de Lint

Marilyn's Kandinsky Circles

These are Kandinsky's circles.......

And these are Marilyn's.

Here's another creative exchange I did with my sister Marilyn. We each had a 12 X 12 piece of thick corrugated cardboard.  We were to make some sort of art piece...using only things we found around the house...with a nod to mosaic. 

Marilyn made this awesome version of Kandinsky's circles. For the background squares she used oversized paint chips that she had laying around the house....and for the circles she cut out various circles from one old magazine. It lives in my breakfast room in Lexington.
I turned mine into a mosaic mirror.  I used rows of beads, buttons, punched squares, colored matchsticks, fabric, and ric rac. 




We thought is was pretty interesting that our color schemes were pretty much the same.  It was also funny how the the small mirror in the center gives the illusion that mine is smaller.
