More on the mixed media piece. Played with silver metal duct tape and Adirondack alcohol inks. I wrote a letter to my mom on the metal over foam core, then applied the inks. Got a great metallic brass color, more like it had been polished and the left out to tarnish.
I have since gessoed the BLUE board - it was driving me crazy, way too blue! I have to work on the gessoed papers I'm adding, probably off whites, cremes, browns, etc, my colors with a hint of blue and fushia. I need to make some new stamps, but the designs escape me. Also the edges of the foamcore need modeling paste and color or collage...
I have about an hour today after school, so I'll get a bunch done.
