a lot of patience

i've always been an artist

who has to work on several pieces at once

i have to see results quickly and

produce something to feel satisfied

i've taken 6 classes with heather gentelman

and have been learning how to create texture

i haven't been concerned about mass producing

just practicing layer upon layers

and seeing what will and can happen

which requires a lot of patience

which i've been learning from heather

---------------

above, a detail of a work in progress

inspired from a photo of a wall taken in philly

i made the star from roof flashing and

added a rust finish

another " work in progress" project

layers of browns, lots of copper leaf,

more wax of shades of blue

and more copper leaf

back and forth, scrapping in between

----------

i'm hoping to finish

one of these boards in

next weeks class
