Inspiration - Rearranged

My Valentines Day gift this year from hubs is for him to make me a couple of trays, like the one in the image above, for displaying my nature items.  Until then... enjoy.

A box of rocks.

My studio bestie.

And matching is way over rated!

Studio Update 021412

Drying rack now organized, the rest of the studio space through the arch.

Hutch put back together and my work area finally organized.

The second tray finally has paint!

The first tray with it's rather "organic" paint job.

Mono printing

I over printed yesterday's reverse print, which didn't turn out so well the print looks really good with color coming from behind, though if I were to do it again I'd make the top print more saturated.

This last one is my favorite out of the bunck, even if it is a little crooked on the paper. The object in the background to the right is a windmill, they are springing up all over the rural landscape here so it's only natural I would incorporate them in my work. ;-)

Foam Tray Mono Prints

Acetate envelope that I used as a ink palette - the ultimate in recycling.
