In my Studio

It's late on a Friday night
and here I am working
on some faces.

My sister Peggy
makes really pretty faces
but I'm the sort
who likes to sketch fast
and likes whatever comes out!

First I applied wall putty
on old book pages.
Then I drew and painted on them.
They are going to go on that smaller canvas.
The bigger canvas is a long story.
Hopefully I decide how to put words on it
so I can finally hang it on my wall!
This is the first time I'm joining
Jennifer of Studio JRU
for her Sneak Peak Friday.

  1. I never thought about using book pages as a background to the art piece. Very interesting and creative. Love it!

  2. Patsy... I am so happy that you have joined us for the first time this week! I loved the peek into your studio. What a fun process... you said wall putty... is that like spackle? I thought about using spackle once for some texture... but I was afraid it might flake off the paper. Do you find it stays put well? The big canvas is SO neat... loving it!! :)
