Playday
This last week I had managed to get myself in a bit of a panic as I had to prepare some fabric collage plus some black and white images for the Solo Printing class with Sue Brown as she had decided we would have a playday with Gum Arabic Transfer. The fabric collage took me forever to get my head round and the drawing was a last minute thing using a dip pen and a bottle of black ink ... here are some of the results

This one is the piece that took me the longest to prepare. It is A4 and not only did I collage it, but I also did some machine and hand stitching onto it in preparation. If I wish (or have the time) I can now add more stitching. Scanning the work really shows how cockeyed I got the fabric!

Don't think the 'cock-eyed' fabric matters at all - your work is getting more layered and complex - lovely. It was a good idea to work on your own.
