Hope the 4th was good for one and all. We did the American thing grilling steaks with corn on the cob. Then took our folding chairs to the park and watched the fireworks coming from the race track. Gorgeous night!!
I’m working on one large oil piece and two photo collage pieces. The photos had been printed on my ink jet printer which I conveniently forgot, so when I, oh so gently, took a damp cloth to a spot of glue it caused the color to rub off. So I purposely rubbed at much of the color for some interesting color mixes. Then, since I didn’t like all I’d done, I added tea bags over the whole piece. They become very transparent when the polymer medium is put on them, and simply tone the papers under neath. I have to tell you that mistakes can result in pieces that are much more interesting than if they had not been made. I’ll add photos to the blog later when I’m finished with the work.
Looking forward to seeing your photo-collage pieces. I’ve spent my time back here re-grouping and enteraining company. And shifting photos around, matting them and perhaps anticipating some sales for the World Equestrian Games in Sept-Oct.
Sooo glad you are putting things on your blog!
