April 19 - last day of Aries - another abstract
this one highly textured. I started with Alex Plus latex silicone caulk and when it was dry covered it with gesso. I then stamped into it while it was still wet and let it dry. Painted with a variety of inks, tombows and pearl-ex. It creates a very flexible finish and not as weighty as it looks.
March 30 + 31
well, problems abound. Looks like i'm doing this all ass backwards. Theres too many ways of doing this and not all of them work. They appear to work as in saying its done but they lie. Sometimes the option isnt there to write anything with the pic or alternately - when i write something the pic dosnt appear. This is a big PITA!
So here goes again. March 30 is a very ragged gel med transfer onto Italian text. In case its too small to read it says "It may be beautiful but i do not like it"
March 31 "Vision" is on a painted paper towel.
March 26 + 27
A tree and a family. Guess you could call it the family tree. This is the curlique family
March 24 + 25
problems with blogger again. ok, March 22 is called "Memories of San Francisco"
March 23 is a Rubber Poet image on a resist bckgrd
March 24 bckgrd was stamped and embossed once with clear powder for the pebbly texture. Dragonfly was cut out of a wallpaper sample and painted with Lumieres then sprinkled with irridescent powder.
March 25 Magenta image spritzed with water before stamping for the watercolor look.

June 20 - Origins - the last day in the sign of Gemini
Texture frames are fun to create using scraps of stuff leftover from art projects. This frame consists of paint chips, gyproc tape, wire and a bit of crinkle paper. I used a couple of punches then glued some and stapled some bits onto a gesso'd bckgrd. I then coated all with more gesso and painted over that with Lumiere gold. The gyproc grid behind the Origins image is a light gold, not as white as it appears.

March 20 last day in the sign of Pisces
Two more fishes but not the typical opposites that usually depict Pisces. i found it most unusual that these two are facing each other. hmmm i wonder what it means...maybe we'll finally come to terms with ourselves and live in harmony forever after. I sure hope so. I am tired of the constant battle and insecurities of feeling and doing only 50% of everything while my other half does its best to pull me the opposite way.
