She says, "I have just discovered gesso and am playing with it. So, I used gesso and tissue paper and acrylics for Babs' book, and this is the result." Joss, I think this is wonderful and it is so perfect for Babs, who really likes abstracts! What do we see here? I think I see a tunnel there at the bottom, and a big, beautiful pink sky overhead. 
Next is her page for Lynn. For this one she says, "And this is my very last page for Lynn. I used gesso again, with silver foil paper, and sand and acrylics. I loved the result, and I hope Lynn will too." Again, Joss, this is super! I am very partial to purple, so this one really speaks to me. They are both lovely and I'm sure their owners will love them. I believe this is the last page for Lynn's book, so it is now on its way to her. After completing her page in Babs' book, that one will be finished as well, and Lynn will be sending it home to Babs. Mine is still out there somewhere, but I'm sure it will find its way home to me eventually. This has been great fun!
Fun to find last pages and such beautiful ones at that. Interesting process with gesso and tissue paper...I like them both and can't wait to see them in person, as they are always more beautiful close up. Thanks Soul. Thanks Katie.
ReplyDeleteWoo-Hoo,,,,my book is nearly finished!
ReplyDeleteJoss, I adore the page you did! These are some of my very favorite colors, and it's a super composition, with the darks at the top echoing those at the bottom.It has a bit of a beachy/ocean-y feel, palm trees too! I like lynn's page also,,very exciting work.Hasn't this been fun?
