Pleasure (life) scares


I haven't worked on any multimedia pieces for a while. I've been screwing around with this one for a few weeks now, working, working, working the background and not really getting anywhere. I had glued images on, taken them off--nothing was really working. Then I saw the outline of the face in the tissue paper and paint. I outlined it in black and then the rest of the piece started to come together. A pleasure and a reminder that I do my best work when I play around with no real plan in mind. I keep THINKING I should have a plan, but that never really works out too well for me. I think I need to spend more time with the gel medium and the acrylics for awhile.
