I MISS not working in the studio today! It has become part of the week's rhythm. On the day I made this collage the orange bike rider came riding through and landed along the bottom edge. He doesn't yet have any friends in other collages the way most of the figurative elements do. As I recall Emma's Collage 114 hosted one of his pals for awhile, but in the end that figure was covered by text. This collage also has sewing pattern tissue in it- an absolute favorite material of mine. It's thin, graphic, translucent and a beautiful warm beige. It reminds me of when I used to sew as a kid. I have to resist not using it in every collage.
