You ARE having fun! Can't wait to start on mine - not sure where to leave my papers to dry - do you think cat footprints will be a nice artistic addition to the pages? I hope Carole can handle 2 Pennys - we'll have to be sure to get our two cents in now and then, don't you think? from Over the Pond Penny
over the pond Penny - I did wonder about paw prints as mine were left to dry on the kitchen table ! I left a leaf dipped in thick offee on the page to dry & the result is fab ! Put a feather on too & got a faint print.
I was thinking about hand made pape - how it has " bits " in it
Oooo your salt crystals are nice and big and make wonderful patterns ... I used Kosher Salt that we have for making potato salad and its effects are more subtle. Love your papers and your gold foil play too! See you in class :)
wow - this is exactly the sort of thing we do on the experimental art e-course too, and I simply love the effect with the salt, what a fab idea! I love what we can do in the name of art fromaround the home . . . . looks really great what you are doing :)
LOL can you tell why my blog is called madness and mess???

ReplyDeleteOh my! I am tardy to class! Maybe Thursday I can come!

ReplyDeletePenny, I am only 35 but 3 years ago I had a total hysterectomy because I was very ill and filled pre-cancer cells. Yeah for being a woman. ;o)

Why didn't I think to do this technique with tea and coffee? I've only used watercolors...the cheap kids kind.
