I went to the Open Studio with big intentions of accomplishing a few paintings. I had all my supplies but no paint! Luckily I never travel without my Acrylic Medium. So I hunted down a few magazines and proceeded to make collages on the canvases instead - or you could say I made Lemonade! This small one I've titled "African Collage", it measures 4" square with 3/4" sides, gallery wrapped canvas.

I finally was able to turn my "Red Sky" sketch into a painting - a small painting. I used mixed media - acrylics and collage. I have been experimenting with the topical collage (the papers adherred on top) along with the foundation collage (the papers adherred under the paint to add texture. This painting measures 5" square and has been painted on gallery wrapped canvas with 3/4" side.
