Jack Russell Terriers — Cait Sherwood

Hi.

I'm Cait Sherwood, a mixed-media painter who works into art journals.

I make art from the trash of the art I made before.

I hadn’t been feeling inspired to make art the past few days. I felt the need to do it but I just wasn’t making it happen. As you know sometimes other life things distract you. Yesterday I started going through my big basket of scraps and either gluing something down or throwing it out. I used up 3 glue sticks—I have a lot of pride when I use something up haha... so satisfying. Also I went to the art store and got a new sketchbook (which I definitely don’t need) and some more small linen canvases. And also I spray painted some of this scrapbook paper that @jessica__loughrey had sent me and it made an exciting pattern. Anyway... that is my tale of how I overcame my artistic resistance this time around. It’s a daily battle. Nothing groundbreaking but I moved myself through it.

Disassembled a painting on canvas which I made shortly after college. Glued it into this book. Put gems on it because I’ve gone through my supplies recently to use what I have—and I have some gems. 💎

Worked on these pages over the weekend with friends from @getmessyartjournal 🌟in real life🌟! We really are people on a planet. The left side was the wax paper from my croissant 🥐.

Okay, vacation is over, ready for the fall now. A very nice week of: teenagers, iced coffee, Tegan and Sara in my ears, making art on the porch, babies and kids, watching movies with grandma, shootin the shit, cinnamon buns, pizza on my salad, shells, storms, clear water, swimming in the ocean for a long time, an 8 foot shark!, a washed up manta ray with bites out of it, a big beetle found by Eillonwy, a rousing game of 99, books, morning coffee time, etc etc etc

Byyyye beach!! 😞😊🐚 thank you for being a heaven
