I started this whole piece a long time ago!
"imported cigars 1858"
(great old stuff)
It could have been a year ago?
It's been hanging on a wall in my studio
so that I might figure how to finish it...hmmm
There is so much to it..,
Labor intensive...
and then...
It magically came to fruition!!! (not)
This was after finding a beautiful old book binding, the perfect color, and an old antique ad, and added some more white writing. I wish you could see it for real... smiling, I am.
Just a happy little fool around piece with ink,
my own mask and pens.
We all need a little magic in our lives.
Remember those beauties I changed with photo ops?
The African lilies?
They don't bloom very long ...
But when they do...
They turn themselves...
And everything nearby into such beauty!!!
Just like what a
FAIRY GARDEN
must look like!
MAGICAL and CHEERY!
a FUN little ditty...
And something that I shan't save...
I was fooling around, experimenting using inks of two colors
only.
While referring to a mag photo, so this doesn't even look like something that came from me, ha! It did, but if you showed me a year later, I truly wouldn't know this!
Hope you are having a wonderful summer!
