Grease Alley, an industrial backwater neighborhood in a blade-runner/fifth-element genre. These shops back onto a trash and old parts-strewn gully, where the junk skiff comes by to pick up broken components, industrial leftovers, and the occasional "borrowed" part.
From the kids bedroom.

My drawing spot on the sidewalk across Calle Hostas from Meson de Bari. The sun was encroaching--time to finish up. July 15, 2012

Here's where the painting was when I stopped working on it last night. Hoping to finish it today...that is if Aiden will let me ;)
It's a 6"x6" linen canvas. I'm really liking the feel of the linen as opposed to the cotton...plus it's less prep since I just put one layer of gesso on these as opposed to several on the cotton canvases to get a smoother base.

For my next series of sampling I'm using unusual surfaces for stitch.
This is a foil crisp packet which has been ironed ( between two sheets of paper) and then overpainted with shimmering gold interference paint.
It was whilst I was waiting for paint to dry on another project that I spied an abandoned canvas in my workroom.
I coated it with tissue paper, acrylic paint and gesso, and then added various paint effects on top.
After sanding it with a sanding block I added tea stains, buttons and dyed lace.
This canvas will hold my collection of "glitzy" necklaces and is destined for my bedroom.
It is a work in progress as I have lots more memorabilia to add.
