bird’s eye over the rolling hills
I work a lot with Caran D’Ache water soluble crayons, but don’t love that the colors are a bit chalky and very susceptible to damage. So I tried coating this with acrylic varnish, and it seems to work beautifully to address both issues. Will be playing with this for a bit, I suspect!

I blame this one on my niece Hayley Greenough, who started posting lovely paintings of jellyfish after a visit to the Monterey Aquarium. She has also done a wonderful series of cat drawings. You should visit her Instagram and take a look! https://www.instagram.com/hayleygreenough.art/

This year’s collage episode draws to a close – I’m all done but the cleanup.
Here are the last three of this year’s edition



and with that, I proceed to the cleanup phase, saving what might be inspiring or useful for next time, sorting the magazines and papers into topical thematic piles, and figuring out how to get it all back out of the way so I can get back to working on that cat tree!

I had short studio time, so only got one little collage glued down

So maybe this is a good day to present the Group Collage from this year:

Each year that we’ve collaged together in my studio, we send a collage around and people add to it from whatever they’re working with. It takes on a life of its own, and becomes a memento of that year’s collage gathering.
