Decided to use negative space differently this time. Embellished my start from June to my liking first. Loved the process, love the product.
In fact, I think I need to get a job painting collage paper. Wouldn't that be so cool?
But I digress.
Next, painted a sheet of canvas paper to be my negative space, so to speak. Again, loved the process, love the end result. It was hard to photograph to satisfaction, but the subtleties here delight me.
Started putting the two together. A perfectly positive 'negative' experience!

Very interesting! Love that muted background! Think I am seeing more of the positive than the negative. Amoebic creatures moving along the surface! I bet I am in for more surprises!
Thanks, Carol. That muted background was fun to create, and entertaining to me in its mutedness given that it alone has four or five layers—started purple, has stampings and various textures, and ended with a fingerpainted layer that finally yielded pleasing results.
oooooooh! What a WONDERFUL process! And heck yes, you should be a creator and purveyor of collage paper!!! xo
I especially love your post-surgery comments because I know you are enjoying moments of (limited) (but increasing?) movement : )
So grateful for your appreciation of this process—a classic mix of right and left brains.
OK, time to start creating and purveying collage paper!
YEAH!! So do it Dotty. Paint papers, and sell them on Etsy! That is a category, stuff for making stuff with. LOL. ;)) Love the texture in the negative. NOT negative. And the jewel toned stones. Little pretties all in a wonky row :)
Thanks for your vote of confidence across the board, Sheila!
Etsy—guess I'd have to learn me something new, wouldn't I?
"Not negative" : )
