Terrific Swap at AlphaStamps

The Steampunk ATC swap at AlphaStamps was for me a great introduction to the concept of Steampunk. It expanded my horizons and I am hooked (pun for Steampunkers) with plans to make mixed-media works of this genre. Now I just need to learn welding.

I chose one image from flickr to use in each ATC creating an additional challenge for myself. Flickr Photostream by

Steampunk!

My new venture ~ I'm sure will fit into my final goal of mixed-media creations. I tend to find a project which becomes the focus or goal for a period of time. Mixed-media works well as I continue to learn about various types of art creation. Building one on the next leads to fruition. So a general goal is easier to achieve than goals with specifications. For me, just like Christmas shopping. 3 dimensional works are so full of possibilities, inclusion is not limited. The challenge is great and expansive. New techniques are required which means more is more. Flo Paint will make a wonderful base to build on. Definitive definition hunt is on.
