Thanks Jill. The note says to use these in my art, maybe collage. It’s almost Feb. but I felt like Christmas!
Progress on Blue Jay
I’m going to have to give up on gessoed paper. It buckles too much, and I’m putting more energy into it. I think I’ll work on unstretched canvas. I’ve done that, before, but not for a while. Anyway, this is todays painting progress.
Blue Jay Today
Donna gave me a bunch of bird magazines. The photos of the bluejays caught my eye. But we seldom see bluejays. From drawing to painting, this is not a bluejay.
New Year, thank goodness!
I’m experimenting with Yupo paper, a polypropolene water media paper. Mine are 9″x12″. I used masking tape on the corner, to plywood. I’ll have white corners when I’m finished. May
be under a mat, or a feature ( when you’re hiding a mistake, call it a feature!) This has been an incredibly wet season, and part of our yard has slid down the mountain. What a big problem. So maybe that’s why this piece looks stormy and foreboding.
