Building Backgrounds

I'm planning to keep adding layers and textures...

colors, oil pastels, charcoal...?

A great way to use up all those little scraps that accumulate...

or junk mail with interesting designs and images that you can't make yourself toss...

I may just copy and use for pieces in future art...

or Not?

No Regrets...

For Jeff...
Happy 28years...
I Love You....
And am expecting Good Stuff from Taiwan....
P.S. Those are Eggs Not Olives (which I bet You are craving about now)

Strike a Pose

Discover YourselF...

Do you see the hidden boarding pass....

and the bits and pieces of maps....?

One of the best things about layering

are all the pieces

in the paint.....

Sometimes, I am the only one who knows

they are there....

and what their meaning is....

Also so pleased to be a part of Seth Apter's Style File today along with a wonderful group of artists!
