My first Paper Painted landscape! It's small--12 x 18. I made some dopey mistakes, but it was easy enough to fix them up. I'm really liking this process. It looks great in the new floater frame that Mike made for it. I stained it a warm brown. All the while, creating this one, I was wishing I had worked larger. A landscape needs space, after all and I think I am ready! I am becoming quite comfortable with the techniques working with paper.
I started my next one, below, on an 18 X 24 wooden panel. I did the sky and undercoat of the bottom grass in paint, but the rest is/will be paper. I guess I love my castles! This is a-very-loosely-based- rendering of one of my favorites--a Scottish ruin called Kilchurn. We had some playful, yet spooky, experiences there!
