Hope's Art Journey

This is a follow up of the post I did on working two pieces at once.  So much for that project.  I can truthfully say that my experiment with black ground on paper was a bust.  Art is a thought process and I never could get my head around the yucky surface of the black with silver paint.  Everything I did looked very primitive.  As I think on it some more, the photo I was using may not be a subject that is worth doing.  It will definitely sit up for awhile until I find a better method for working it.  [...]

Collecting other artists' work is a way of "paying it forward" and helps our galleries stay open. [...]
