This is kind of exciting to me: Mad Swirl has published a few of my art pieces with an offer to add to the online gallery (I guess I better start playing in my messy room in spite of my leg!).

This is what the editor wrote:
“Mad Swirl is excited to bring a new artist, Luanne Castle to the Mad Gallery, with work somehow as whimsical as it is haunting. Luanne brings us these magical collage pieces from Arizona, USA, and we must say, her passion for poetry and art is evident in the way she uniquely blends odds and ends of both together in her eccentric and intriguing work. I’m not sure what it is, but there’s something very Alice In Wonderland about her collages – a little mystical, dreamy & strange, like maybe we’ve plunged into a rabbit hole ourselves. ~ Madelyn Olson”
Language is part of these pieces, whether you can see it all or not. There is also a word some might not like so if you are sensitive about cussing you might not want to check out the images (or read too closely into the screen shot). If it doesn’t bother you, I hope you like them!

Congratulations!
Thank you, Kate!
Congratulations! This is SO cool! Luanne, I am amazed and thrilled with your creativity, how you just dive in, do it, and submit it. You are an inspiration. xo
Haha, the only way to do it is to dive in because otherwise anxiety and fear is paralyzing. Thanks, Marie!
Congratulations, Luanne. Thoughtful pieces.
Thank you, John. I am having so much fun with the “whatever I want to do” aspect of collaging, etc.
That is a good thing for sure
Congratulations, Luanne! I am very impressed!! These pieces are so striking and evocative. Brava!!
Thank you, Liz. These are my favorites so far. I have a few other collages that I really like from my very many journals, but they aren’t as carefully constructed because they are in journals.
You’re welcome, Luanne. I could easily see these collages in an art gallery exhibit.
Aw that is so sweet!
🙂
Congratulations, Luanne!
Thank you, Jill! When I turned on my Kindle, one of your books was on my screen! So I had to check and see what I hadn’t read yet! Bought searching for home.
Very cool! Congratulations
Ellen, thank you!!!
Wonderful.❤️ I love going down rabbit holes.🐇
Oh me, too. Something I am always doing haha! Thank you, Melissa!
I look forward to reading more.😉
Congratulations, Luanne. I couldn’t get the images enlarged enough for full inspection, but never mind
Thank you, Derrick! Oh that’s too bad!
Congratulations, Luanne!
Thank you, Merril.
You’re welcome, Luanne.
Congratulations on your creativity that is burgeoning all over the place! I love medusa’s story and let it go.
Thanks, Andrea! Yes, I am all over the place haha. Easily distracted!
