Hello friends. Ruth here. So, what have you been doing during the pandemic shutdown? Russ and I have been occasionally working on the yard here at ReWorked Creations. Our nephew Evan has been helping out too. It’s a long and slow work in progress, but we are making some headway! Here’s a few shots of what it looks like now. So much more to do....

We're kick-starting the day with this clip of an original song by Mark Gagnon. We think the lyrics are appropriate for today and what we all need to do to move forward in this uncertain time. You can view the song in its entirety by visiting his page at Monark Custom Framing and Art Gallery. Sending love to you all...
Hello friends. Ruth here. I completed this tissue paper collage this week. It’s all paper, lots and lots of tiny strips of salvaged tissue paper. I used photos of star trails as my inspiration. I am fascinated by these time lapse images of the night sky.
More quarantine art. Flower bouquet still life created by Ruth Warren. This piece measures 12”x12” and incorporates a variety of salvaged tissue papers.
Another day in the house, another bowl created. This one incorporated tissue paper, napkins, vintage buttons and an old bangle bracelet. Paper and button bowl by Ruth Warren.
