This is so intrinsic, there must be a lot of layers there, how do you put it all together?

Oils (when diluted in turpentine) dry very quickly on carboard paper (especially when used in manner of watercolours) the rest is based on monoprinting and you can repeat it until the desired effect is reached (it also adds that textural look). But to be honest there's still a lot of experiment in it. Thank you for the comment and

Out of curiousity, do you do all the writing/text by hand or is some of it stampwork?

Versatis In reply to tarynheart [2008-01-14 11:29:21 +0000 UTC]

Yes, in this piece they are both: handwriting and the stampwork (here I used old xerox copies to imprint the texts)

my work on the bird was only to make it looks old and painted while it's originally taken from the press like the scraps for a collage; next time I need to try not to use the picture but draw my own with reference. then I think it would be more authentic. I'm glad you like it, thanks.

Cudowne! Kolory i w ogóle wszystko... Kolibry kojarzą mi się właśnie z wiosną..

Mają mnóstwo wdzięku i powiedziałbym, że symbolizując wiosnę dotyczą właśnie takiej zdecydowanej w pełnym rozkwicie, w orzeźwiającej kwietniowej ulewie, itp.

XiaoSing [2006-06-17 08:52:04 +0000 UTC]

the colors are subtle and beautiful, and there's a certain "pieced together" look to it that is very nice


also, the symbol and the bolder text stand out more and make it more randonm (?) but it works really well.

side strip makes a nice contrast, as does the little spritzes of red in the other corners

Another great piece of artwork. Like that you use the sun and the moon and the stars. And the colours are great!

Thank you I've found this sun-moon symbol in my diaries at the pages of April 2004 (on so called Sweet Days ), and I used it as a part of the 'April Story'. I like adding some half-real meanings to the works

You're welcome Half-real meanings are good, even though you're the only person who understands them..
