TEXTURED BACKGROUND

ART!!!!

I decided to do an hour of art early this morning. Here's what I started out with.
I snagged this on sale picture at Target for cheap. I liked the graphics for background
shapes and color plus it's on a panel board so great for working on.

Next I took a Pier 1 catalog that I had saved and stared cutting shapes of various sizes to collage in a random pattern. I allowed the background image to show through for a varied look.

Next I had a pile of string, threads & fabric scraps that I have been saving to use
in a collage background. I used gel medium to adhere the strings etc. trying to
cover the parts of the collaged pier 1 prices... but choosing to show some letters
and numbers for interest.

Next? I don't know. Tomorrow will tell.
ta for now
