Monday Pieces

This is another in the thread collage series. The base is an etching I did of threads last year. Today I used water color to highlight some shapes, added bits from a dictionary and a final layer of thin paper on which I had sewn red thread.


Then two more flat collages.

YEAH!!!OBAMA, OBAMA!!!



OKAY, not nearly as liberal as I would like
but I am happy that a big enough portion of the country
voted a little more to the left then in previous years.

These are some collages I finished up today, found objects, thread, bits of found words
that felt as if they should be in a flat format.

What shall tomorrow bring? more threads to unravel and more thoughts to be freed.

Today I am content, relaxed and still hopeful...except for that dark Prop 8 cloud.
