Tips and Tricks


Time Traveler 8x8

This painting begins with a textured pattern pressed into wet molding paste. When dry, gold leaf is applied, sealed and painted. Collage of tissue and rice paper with an etching is layered on top. More paint and layers complete the work.

Time Warps and Wormholes


Portal 22x15 oil on paper

Time has slipped away at warp speed once again and I think I have fallen through the rabbit wormhole and come out on the other side of tomorrow. If that's not enough to twist your mind try this collagraph work on paper called Portal. For you printmakers, it is a triple drop with a gum arabic transfer collage and silk over that. For all other normal people I think it is a beautifully textured work that is ready to be framed. I am sending out my newsletter tomorrow with a special Holiday invite. Check it out. I hope to post again soon now that I found the key to the time machine. Happy December.
