What I find so luxurious about working
with
mixed media
is the opportunity to play...
bend rules and just experiment...

last month I had a little break through in my
Art Journaling pages..
which you can see
right here..

I was so fascinated that I kept working
on small scraps of mixed media papers.. 8 x 8 and
this one above is only 5 x 7
titled, As If...
My Excavations Series
is about revealing the hidden layers..

in relationship..
those closest to you..
the ones you struggle with..
I know you understand dear reader...

sometimes
they leave you ragged..
unruly..
I am thinking that I will mount these on boards and that will
allow me to play on paper
until I feel like mounting them..
Once mounted I can sand and paint to edit, but the composition will
remain the same..
I am working with my mono prints and antique book pages,
and it has given me the textural feel that I wanted
to convey..
and I love the layers and textures...
and my intention is to work larger..

In the studio this week
I will begin filming my new video on
the creation of my new travel journal..
from my Antique photo album..
and I hope to find time to get back to my water painting..
since I have some new portraits in mind..
and I am lusting over the space the large piece occupies..
also submissions are in the works..
and I just found out that my Sew Somerset Article and art is being delayed from
June
until
December...
so
gentle reader...
we will just have to
wait..
Ciao, Ciao!!
