collage monday

Cm11.21.11-5-

today's collage monday is inspired by my new favorite student karen, who gifted me this awesome piece of tim holtz tissue that i used for my background. for some reason i kept seeing circles...(might be the fever, lol) so i punched a bunch of circles from patterned papers and used golden yellow india ink to outline and drip around. the yellow made me really happy!

isolated some words from the text, dripped some black india ink and added some tapes.

FINALLY!! A collage Monday that I can actually do. Loved its simplicity. This is how naive I am....I only thought India Ink was black. You educate me each Monday and Wednesday. Loving it.

I take permission from your art to be prouder of my less than perfect efforts. It is ok to be a little "messy" after all.
