a-tissue....

Oooh - horrible pun, sorry!!!


Here's a patchwork pattern that started off as some coloured bits of tissue layered and laminated onto some clear plastic with pva glue. When it all dried, I peeled the tissue away from the plastic , scanned in the resulting 'paper' and manipulated the pattern in photoshop. All in all I'm quite pleased with it - although what it's use might be other than something pleasing to have done, I'm not quite sure. Gave me a lot of satisfaction to do though - and, as I'm having one of those 'blank page' moments myself, something like this is good to keep the creative juices flowing...

Big Red

I drew the body of the bag and the zipper before I remembered to draw the handles and I sort of like the transparent, errors-on-display-ness of it!
