Week 232 Assignment 2 for Take A Class With Dave and Dave.
Paper Open to interpretation.
Kathy and her mother save wrapping paper, boxes and tissue paper. After every birthday, holiday, etc. the stuff gets sorted, bagged and saved. There are bags and bags of it in the attic, which, had it not been so hellishly hot up there, I thought about shooting. Instead I grabbed a handful and just shot those.

like most children - she's enjoying playing with the wrapper more than her new toy! Also you'll see a big tub of sugar which is oddly placed in the living room. My mom does a lot of cooking at the holidays and sometimes she'll walk out to look at the television or answer the phone and bring the mixing bowl with her or the tub o sugar or flour... and there it sits.
"In June 2009, Camille was diagnosed with an Intracranial Ependymoma situated in the fourth ventricle between the cerebellum and the brain stem at the base of the brain. The tumour is currently pressing against the cerebellum and brain stem making surgery too dangerous. The treatment plan is to offer chemotherapy to shrink the tumour away from these two areas so surgery can take place. Chemotherapy started on 23rd July 2009 and is planned to last for 12 months or more."
Camille's mum belongs to an online community that I've been a part of for a long time. We've all been through a lot of things together, births, marriages, break ups, make ups, but I don't think anything has touched us quite as much as Camille's story.
A group of us also belong to the flickr community and wondered if there was anything we could do here to help raise awareness. Can I please, please ask you to take a look at this group and become a member and invite your contacts. It would also be great if some of the pictures reached explore so if you could comment or fave (preferably both) this would really give the appeal a boost.
Can I also ask you to look at Camille's website and read Martin's (Camille's dad) blog. What Camille's family are going through is truly heartbreaking. Please, please do what you can.
Thank you for reading.
a bit more orange and and a festive garland. just added the down comforter, although it got warmer here, so I'm thinking I jumped the gun!
I created this stamped candle and matching card set as a holiday gift. I used slightly non-traditional versions of red and green, so the candle could be used year round. It was a lot of fun to make and I am so pleased with the results!

Experimenting on the sketchbook with different mediums makes me want to try the same techniques with the paintings.
I like the way the color congeals around the ripples created by crumpled tissue paper and suggests the hollows in the ground, the wild herbs, the roots ... in a simultaneous vision of the layers.
You can buy this painting on my blog
Sperimentare con vari medium sullo sketchbook mi fa venire voglia di tentare le stesse tecniche anche con i dipinti.
Mi piace il modo in cui il colore si raggruma intorno alle increspature create dalla carta velina stropicciata e suggerisce gli avvallamenti nel terreno, le erbe selvatiche, le radici... in una visione a strati simultanei.

Fraternities and Sororities at OSU once again outdid themselves, creating amazing yard decorations (pomping tiny pieces of tissue paper). Moving parts, music and narration was synched to the display- VERY IMPRESSIVE!

I've crumpled the paper in preparation for gluing it to the paperboard. I like the added texture this gives the finished postcard, plus it helps hide mistakes!
Note: I ran out of pretty tissue paper, so the paper I'm using throughout this tutorial is a paper tablecloth I found on clearance at my local party store.

I was in awe of Cathey Love's Dragon Eye project when she posted it on Facebook, so we had to try it at McNeil. It's in the rotation now!
We drew dragon eyes, went over that drawing with Sharpies, added shaded colored pencil accents, and then the real fun happened - we used bleeding tissue squares to add color! I've never used bleeding tissues before, but I'm hooked. What a fun way to add color. For the last step, we added chalk pastel to the eye.
I really love how each eyes is as individual as the artist making it.
My beautiful cousin never ceases to surprise and amaze me with her talents. She sent me a box full of goodies (literally) over the holiday: homemade chocolate chip cookies! :)
She pays close attention to details in all her letters, packaging, presents, etc. I love how she stamped her cookies with her seal.
A full-pumpkin round base version of the Beasties limited to 20 sets. And closing shoppe for the holiday in just a few days! bindlegrim.blogspot.com/2015/10/seven-nights.html
I created paper party lights that look like beach balls.

...to see just what is going on over in this pile colorful tissue paper. He's been hearing a lot of soft rustling noises!
These are pieces of tissue paper I colored with acrylic inks and used in multi-media paintings and greeting cards I made.
I crushed white tissue paper, sprayed it with water, and then dropped on acrylic ink. After the paper dried, I crushed
the paper again and repeated the process. When I was satisfied with the result, I ironed the paper flat.

Chromolithograpy. THE State of the Art Printmaking Process.
Early master printmaker developed the lithographic color printing process and used it for everything from brilliantly colored reference book illustrations, to color postcards and children's picture books from the mid 1800s up to the early 1900s.
This costly and labor extensive printing process is explained here in 12 steps (in German.)
The process of Lithography involves the application of 12 different pattern templates, each using 12 different color chromium inks; one precisely layered on top of the other, resulting in a breathtaking; almost photographic quality image. Chromium ink is metallic based and it shimmers in the light.
'1906 Lithograph Printmaking Explained' is in glorious perfect condition, captured in cool earth-tone colors of greens, russet, gold, rose and aqua over a background of creamy white, all done in the most costly chromium inks available back in the day.
This antique litho is PERFECT; smooth and flat with crisp edges and corners and almost no tanning at all; remarkable condition for 104 year old paper! It's still covered with it's vellum tissuepaper guard.
If you're going for the crumpled look like I did, you don't have to worry too much about eliminating all the air bubbles. If you want a cleaner look, you might try using a bone folder or similar tool to help spread the paper evenly onto the paperboard.
