collage and beyond

Yesterday, Danielle came over and she wanted to make a book about dogs.  Here is her "beginning" page.

And then she worked on a collaged page of dogs.  Love her background!

Back to Wednesday's collage class, I had made more papers for my "forest-y" backgrounds, using tissue paper which I gessoed with a sponge brayer and then layers of paint applied the same way.

Well, this one is upside-down, but you get the idea.  I see sunrays shining through the trees in the forest.

Judy is working on her darling altered book of a  "hedgehog's world".

Teri has caught my interest with her book named "The story of Transformation".

 Here are two of Sandy's pages satisfying the theme that I gave of "The Call", creating with the colors that call to her in her beautiful artwork.

 Bernie is concentrating her pages on "what makes me happy"!

Lora Lee had fun with this one, showing lots of action and movement and color!

Barb working on her book, and her workspace is a lovely collage all by itself. 

Mary Ann has added some leaves to her serene landscape and we are all likin' it!

and Mary Ann's little book in progress.

 Denise has some beautiful colors going on here with her Fall landscapes.

and here she shows us, besides working on her landscape series, she designs a quilt square a week with fabric.

Another beautiful landscape in the making, Lora Lee has a great start here!
