Image Transfers on Everything

A fun little collection of image transfer projects from the book, and from classes. Its amazing how versatile image transfers are. I find that I use them on paper in quick correspondence, in gift wrap, on fabric, on wood, on metal on anything almost!  They can be immediate are spontaneous or the base of a mixed media piece as just one of many layers. They more I play, the more I love them.

Mail Art

I've been sending a lot of correspondence lately... These are a few cards I made one night when I was stuck in a hotel room on a bitterly cold evening. I bought a kids set of brush markers in red, blue and yellow and used them to make these postcards... I really like the results of having the limitation of 3 colors. Sometimes, I think all the choice you have when at home in your studio can keep you from creating...
