Notes on Somerset Studio Gallery Summer ‘08:
p. 32 “I think my luck stems from my ability to search and find items I can build a story on.”
Good idea—start with an object and build a narrative around it. Create something that fits into the narrative and uses the object. Put the story on the back.
Xmas ornaments p. 38
Sandwich two images back to back and enclose between glass slides. Wrap with silver tape and apply Stickles over the tape. Wrap with wire to form a hangar. Attach wire with beads to bottom.
p. 52 “Legend”
Attach smaller canvas with hinges to a larger one. Add a handle. Hang two tags from bottom.
p. 58 Create a collage like this using Kayleigh’s face. Handtint the photo.
p. 73 I’m really interesting in trying the encaustic medium. Must ask Joy if she has any—she always mentions encaustic. Try it on Claybord. Can buy from rfpaints.com and at Jerry’s Artarama.
Maybe a biweekly challenge is the thing to suggest to A. Alternate picking the theme.
Really like using miniatures on a large canvas—see “Enchanted Garden” p. 77
