I get a kick out of how you seem to find cool things to incorporate into collages on your walks. This current board book is so much more YOU. Always enjoy seeing you on the table, LM. Thanks for the inspiration.
i have to say sue ellen that i am really enjoying this book....and it is not done yet...for the october challenge...i sure hope i get it done! lol...yay...see you on the table sue ellen!!!
...i'm glad you're absolutely recognizable and tangible in the new board-book !!!... and quite shy, so is your little Stabilo-friend back on the table.....it's great to try something new that makes our realize how valuable that is what we already have ... such an inteeesting art-journey with you !!! many greetings from Hamburg
This book is beautiful. I’m currently on holiday in Greek island, last here thirty years ago, pre children, and there were no mobile phones. Making me realised how blessed we are now to see and share the creativity across the globe. Looking forward to getting my hands on stabilo again at home to layer that black on white, it pops, so thankyou for that.
oh my goodness steph...enjoy your time there! we were there a few years ago and it is so divine steph!!! enjoy....your stabilo will wait! lol....see you on the table steph!!

thank you vicky.....i finally bonded with the book today....developed a bit of sense of humor around it....now i am so excited to play in the book!!! yay......see you on the table vicky!!!
I am so very much loving this book! I have another project in the works, but I definitely want to give this a go. The theme and colors are totally speaking to me! 💜🖤
oh ff.....thank you so much for taking the time to leave a comment....this is a 'do over' for my board book....and it is finally taking shape....today i let my 'dark sense of humor' pop into the book....now i am excited too!!! yay....see you on the table ff!!!
LorriMarie Jenkins Yes I saw the live chat where you explained what happened. And I just LOVE how it has propelled you into this remake, cuz let me tell you, it’s just fantastic. This one really has feeling to it. 🖤💜 I get it and I love it!
Love this LorriMarie, as usual, you cease to amaze me with your wonderful creations, I’m so in Awe of your Art work, my Art work is slowly but surely coming along, so glad that I found your channel💕
I love the “new” book! You’re so incredible putting collages together - a true Master - it’s such a pleasure to look at them, but most importantly they all have a story to share. Hope you had fun at the art opening. 🙏💕🎨
I often put bird feet on humans, especially on Victorian ladies, but I love the way you made the lacy torso look like the whole body of the figure, rather like a big, fluffy owl body and it’s little feet poking out below.
thank you precious....this is a 'fashion dress'...the skirt is the body and the 'hat' is the torso of the dress....life can be so much fun...right? yay....go create, go play, go have fun attila!!!!!
Love, love, love the fae finder theme! Such fun. Your car finder needs a fun butterfly net to catch them in. You had mentioned previously that the Matt medium you'd used was thin. I have found it depends on the brand. I'm using Windsor & Newton Galeria at present & it's rubbish!! Seriously, it needs tons just to keep stuff stuck down. I bought two so got to grin & bear it. Whereas, I have a Matt Gel Medium by Golden, it's awesome, had it ages, but it's so darn thick!!! I believe it can be thinner down. A lot of people in the UK tend to use cheap clear gesso over top of everything to stop stickiness. 😊❤❤ Edited to add, that should say fae finder needs a butterfly net. Stupid auto correct. 🤔
i understood you paula!!! lol....today my sense of humor jumped into the book.....and now i cannot wait for dark o'clock tomorrow so i can play again!!! lol....see you on the table paula!!!
Ohhh I do LOVE this!!! Fae finder👏is perfection! I work a lot with silhouette.. it’s amazing how much you can convey with just a shadow form... I’m really excited to see where you go with it.. I just love your creativity and your willingness to share it❤️
thank you carole....it is my pleasure to share carole.....if i did not share i might explode...lol!!!! i have had a bit of trouble getting started on this book.....but i feel like i got into it today! yay!....see you on the table carole!!!
Ahhh this is so refreshing and fun. Glad I took time to watch it LorrieMarie as always it is inspiring to watch you work. I've been avoiding it as I felt like I needed to catch up with the actual book pages. This makes me want to rush to the table. I am slowly cranking the wheels inside my head to figure out what my book theme should look like. I guess once we establish that "vision" in our heads it is smoother sailing, at least it was when I did the Halloween book. The ideas just seemed to pop out from everywhere. Thank you! thank you! Thank you!!!
oh my gosh ilona....this brought tears to my eyes....thank you so much....i am very excited to play in this book! so....let's go!!! finding the theme seems like the hardest part....and then...ta dah!!! see you on the table ilona!!!
I acquired a bunch of board books years ago thinking someday I would figure out what to do with them. I’ve watched your videos and now have 4 of them in process with “underpants” and making backgrounds. I have no clue as to what to put in them! I’m thinking I will make each a different color theme and perhaps that will reveal to me what will be next. If you have advice about how to find a theme, please share?! I am enjoying getting to know you and learning from you. I started out 6 years ago making blank bound journals, then junk journals and now wanting to add more mixed media into my creations. Thank you so much for sharing your creativity and knowledge!
oh that pesky theme! lol....i love the circus theme...vintage people theme...vintage children especially....silhouetts, birds, butterflies, fish...i have a really hard time with the themes too....i did an entire book on Frida Khalo....that was really, really fun....i hope that some of these ideas spur other ideas for you karen.....good luck...and...go create, go play, go have fun!!!
love your book. i did hear somebody say that when they used matte medium on their books instead of modge podge they never had the problem of their pages sticking to each other anymore. just passing that info along to ya. hugs
now sue.....that is what i love to hear....i tried to get used to the matte medium...a golden product...it is a bit thin for me....i am now using the gel medium...matte finish....i hoping that it too will not be sticky...but man oh man....i am missing my modpodge! lol....never give up, never surrender!!! lol....thank you so much for your comment....see you on the table sue!!!!
thank you toni for taking the time to comment! the scarf is part of the original magazine image! fun...right? i hope you are getting some fun play time toni!!! see you on the table....

Hi Lorrie, I'm fascinated by your work, and I'm looking at all your videos a little at a time, how much inspiration I found and lots of techniques to learn. I didn't understand what Patreon is about, is it a platform where you can take courses? and what does the contribution to the village consist of? Perhaps I struggle to understand translating from English, I apologize in this case. I'm waiting for your next video. Eleanor
thank you for reaching out ! patreon is a paid membership where i provide some focal points, step by step directions and exclusive videos...i hope that helps with that question....and i have a paypal account for people that would like to contribute money to the 'village'....this channel...i hope that helps creativamodomio! i hope you can translate this comment!!! see you on the table!
I am such a huge admirer of you LMJ and your work, your presence, and personality. You are amazing and give so much. But honey this is no fey: this is a demon (goat head, human body). I’m sure it’s unintentional, but honey I can’t hang with that.
thank you john....i going more with mythical creatures i guess...but not an evil demon...only good hearted critters in my book!!! here is a definition john.... no demons here....thank you for your comment john!!! 1. mythical being 2. supernatural; unreal; enchanted; strange; other worldly; able to see the future 3. quaintly unconventional; whimsical; unusual 4. possesing fairy like qualities
another definition john.... Fairy. ... A fairy (also fata, fay, fey, fae, fair folk; from faery, faerie, "realm of the fays") is a type of mythical being or legendary creature in European folklore (and particularly Celtic, Slavic, German, English, and French folklore), a form of spirit, often described as metaphysical, supernatural, or preternatural.
LorriMarie Jenkins, I sincerely mean no disrespect. And I am sincere when I say I’m a big fan of your gorgeous artwork. I also believe you sincerely believe it is harmless fey symbology. And really, it’s not about me. I guess what I’m trying to convey is this: say for example you painted a beautiful rainbow with a thick black line across it. You felt compelled to express this color combination and and shared it to your group. Some people saw this and were very offended, and even hurt. Knowing you, you would be aghast at this response, because pitching anti-gay symbology is not only wrong, is not your MO. In fact, you cherish and support all people regardless of inclination. Now back to the goat-human fey. You expressed yourself in this whimsical book about fairies. Instead of a fairy though, it is a demon. Who cares right? Well, there is one person who does care greatly. In fact he is likely greatly offended. That person is your HP. Look at it this way, when we became sober, we had a choice, to either die an alcoholic or to live. One choice: good or bad. To deny the presence of dueling natures: good, bad, right, wrong, evil, Godly is a disservice to God. I’ve spent my whole life offending and not caring, unlike yourself I’m sure, but its time to start caring about what God thinks
