a few years ago, my dear friend Abigail and I got together to do art
this piece started then and was finished today
we took heavy paper and put some sort of heavy paste on it and pressed burlap and bubble wrap into it for fun and texture
carved words and sketched a loose face with a stick
after it dried i believe we put a wash of dark ink or paint that would go into the grooves, i chose purple
then played with oil pastels
then played with oil pastels
feels good to complete it
I had to photograph it outside
(leaning against a grinding stone, surrounded by a wasp nest, piece of bird egg, colorful Montana Rocks)
did not want the oil pastels on the scanner
