Patterns Collage

I finally made a multi-colored collage. I was inspired by the large piece of paper in the bottom right. I produced it using the technique of citrasolve on a colored photo from the National Geographic. I love techniques that are totally unpredictable in what you end up with. I did a dozen or so pages; a few were stunning, some were interesting, and some were blah. The problem will be how to use them. This collage emerged when the colors reminded me of African prints.

Pond photos



These are two photos I took at the goldfish pond in front of my house. They make great desktop backgrounds.
