One World One Heart
Welcome One World One Heart Participants and Followers! I'm so glad you stopped by for a visit.
My name is Amy Weaver and I'm a mom, grandma and aspiring, wannabe artist. I started this blog as a way to share my artistic journey with friends and family and to keep myself working and accountable as I try to make art a part of my daily life and embrace whatever direction God has for me.
I am a part of an amazing online art community for trading all types of art but particularly ATCs or Artist Trading Cards called ATCsforall.com . A lot of the work I do and post here is for trading with other artists in the community but I do try to do some other projects that will help me to grow in this journey and allow me to try other types of art. I am always learning...always growing and as long as I can say that, I am happy to continue along this wonderful journey and hope that others will take the time to stop by and share it with me.
To thank you for visiting and participating in One World One Heart Event . I will be giving away this Hand Drawn/Hand Painted piece titled "Joy". It measures 8in x 8in and was created using a number of mediums including acrylics, watercolors and various collage elements on a piece of matboard. It can remain unframed or you can frame it to suit your tastes and needs. To Win please leave a comment to this post beginning at 12:00am January 31st through February 17th.
(You MUST put a contact email in your comment to be eligible for the prize which will be drawn on February 17th, 2011. You may enter from anywhere in the world. Your prize will be mailed within 3 days.)
Thank you so much for visiting and for joining me on this amazing journey! Blessings!
Hey! She looks like me! Hope I win :)

Great blog and giveaway...I don't think you fit into the 'wannabe' category though. Although I know it can be very difficult to accept the title of 'Artist'. Be sure to visit my blog and leave a comment, so I can add your name to my draw!
ReplyDeleteHello Amy,
ReplyDeleteYour artwork is lovely.
I used to be on ATCsforall but haven't been there for quite some time.
Thank you for visiting my blog.

It's good to finally be here, sorry my flight was late...all these bloggers just made one big traffic jam on the road from the airport - seems we were all on our way here (I think some of them got lost so I will get my comment in while I can)!
ReplyDeleteThanks for inviting us here to visit your blog - it is lovely and your giveaway is just as lovely. I have to catch another flight but I will be back when this world traveling is finished. Hope you get a chance to come over to my blog to say Hi at some point...

ReplyDeleteas for the bartering "thing", i have not updated that page in AGES but should do so soon (thank you for the motivation!). several artist friends and i were trying to buy less last year, and trade more. that's why i started that little page. we did so great! a fiend of mine needed a certain glue, i needed some thread and we swapped. it's as simple as that. :) i'll update my list soon, but in the meantime please let me know if there is anything on your arty wishlist and if i have it/them, i will for sure let you know!

~Hi Amy~this is Amy, from The Heart of a Seed~you asked about the little preemie sweater I knitted for my sister.~I just made it up as I went along~I looked at other baby sweaters & eye-balled how big it should be for such a tiny baby.~I just used the knit stitch to keep it simple~I worked from the back to the front~decreasing my stiches around the arms.~then I held one side of the front on my needles as I knitted on the other side of the front~casted off on the bottom~then knitted the other side of the front~(hope this makes a little sense)casted off~so, the body of the sweater was one piece~then I knitted the sleeves & sewed them on.~crocheted around the front & neck to finish~& added a button.~ wish I had written it down~hope this helps~but, pretty much I just studied other baby sweaters & made it up.~SO NICE meeting you !~ love your artwork~Amy~
