Sensational! Glad I'm not the only one who finds a canvas on everyday trash. My favorite are straw-wrappers.

Great job!!

Thanks a lot!

Straw-wrappers, huh? Not a lot of surface area for art, I would think!

Okay...I checked your gallery and THERE THEY ARE. Nice!

You're welcome.

Nope, not a lot of surface area. So you have to make due with what you have.

Thank you!

You always have the "touch"

Every once in a while we come across a perfect drawing or painting surface in a most unexpected places... Gotta love accidental art supplies.

Thank you, sir; I appreciate the comment!

Yeah, those unexpected surfaces are SO helpful when one needs to stop thinking too much about making Art with a capital A. Easy to just get on with it and play a bit when it's something you would normally throw away.

Yeah, it is funny how we can let go of a lot of expectations when we remove the preciousness of the materials.
Hope all is well.
