Learning About Layers

I have joined an amazing video workshop given by Julie Prichard of The Land Of Lost Luggage. It's called Layer Love. This experience is a lot of fun because my friend Kathy No Blog has joined me. We are painting side by side from across the US via iphone pics!!Yeah, we're cool like that.teehee. Julie has other workshops available, but I hopped on this one because she will not be taking new students for this class after May 31. Check out all her workshop offerings, I have only just begun, I'm coveting the Complex Collage one for next time.
I'm not going to go into written detail (cuz Julie would, like, so kick my ass) here, just going to show you a picture trail of my steps in my first attempt:









The last two are the finished painting in case you were wondering. I'm calling it finished. Now I've shown these photos to several people and have asked which orientation they like best. I'm not telling you what I like until you tell me what you like. well? I'm waiting......


Here is the second project:










This one is not done, but I don't have time to add the finishing steps before I go to Va TOMORROW!!! Why am I still blogging when I have no clean socks and I cant find the pair of jeans that I can zip up???? xoSusan

  2. Hi Susan! Feels like I haven't seen you in AGES! . . . well, I really haven't "seen" you, but you know what I mean *hee hee*

    I was crackin' up when you wrote that you couldn't find your jeans that you could zip up. A couple of weekends ago I pulled a pair of jeans out of the closet to wear to the flea market and when I tried to pull them up and they wouldn't go past my thighs I thought "Oh, these must be Taylor's (my teenage son) jeans". Well, sadly they weren't . . . yikes!

    Moving right along here . . . Love all of the layers you are creating and have creatED. Personally I would probably turn it vertically "just because" *smiles*

    Have a great weekend Susan! xoxo Sherry
