Tag: Yellow
bring me sunshine!
Beginning in my usual fashion: enthusiastic tearing and shredding of the scraps from which latest textile project will be made!
Early days, but it’s taking shape
Not sure yet if it’s going lampshade or window hanging/blind kinda thing, but what I do know is it needs to be backlit!
Y’see? Get those yellows glowing!!
More soon! 🙂

cured with yellow
Remember the page with the tissue paper runnings? Well, yesterday it came round!
While I loved the patterns it made, the blue/grey/mauve colors just aren’t me. Yellow is the cure-all color, blending these hues to the green/orange warms shades I love. I used dilute Brusho ink in a spray bottle to brighten and warm the colors, and from there it was just a bit of collage, block printing and doodling away from complete!

out of the sketchbook!
I’m so enjoying the page a day project, and the 12 in 12 (updates on that one soon) but it has meant that not so much art has been going on outside of the sketchbooks.
So I decided to venture out of my papery comfort zone and onto canvas. This is a first for me! It’s still a work in progress, but here’s how it’s starting out…
Being a deep canvas I want to incorporate the edges. With no particular plan I started out with acrylic glazes….
Starting out with collage bits the trial layouts begin then gluing commences!
Bit by bit…
More glaze to bring the bits together,
And some dyed scrim for a bit of texture
More paint, blending some of the raw edges together
More layers
More dyed scrim
And doodles in thread
I’ll post more as it develops, but so far I’m pleased with the way it’s coming together.
