peacocks

i sent out my first e-newsletter this week - yay! i hope all you subscribers enjoy it.

i issued a challenge to anyone who'd like to join in the fun - it's a blind collaboration. i will collect virtual feathers from everyone, join them together into a beautiful peacock, and post the image for everyone. this is one i drew with aqua promarkers.

1. create a feather in whatever colors, style, medium you want. paint, draw, collage, stamp, sew, sculpt...and it can be any kind of feather, not just a peacock's.


2. take a good, clear picture of your work, against a white background.

3. email your pic to me by 11/8/09 and i will assemble it for viewing next week. (lisa@lisalizalou.com)

it's really cool to see everyone's creations, and it's rather liberating to make something without any rules, without knowing exactly how it will all come together with everyone else's.

i also drew two prize winners from the first 100 subscribers...they were cindy derosier and jessica germain...both happen to be fiskateers by the way! those ladies are some lucky duckies! i put together a lovely prize package for each of them that includes a blank canvas book, some papers, embellies, fabri-tac, and liquitex acrylic inks.

hope y'all are having a great week!
