i felt like i hit the jackpot when i found a sonia delunay book 

on sale at anthropologie.  i love her use of color and design but 

was unfamiliar with her figures.  i used a small section of one of her

paintings for this teabag painting.

i am experimenting with figure drawing this week.  

simple lines are deceptively difficult.  

i have paper ephemerah flowing from drawers,

shelves, closets.  a friend suggested i use them to collage in large books.

he said don't think about it.  just work intuitively.  here are a few 

pages.  i worked fast, intuitively and had a lot of fun!  also he said

that i can cut portions of the pages if i want to use them in a painting.

good idea!

it's been hot, hot, hot this week.  in the 90's.

but the sunsets have been spectacular and the 

evenings delicious.

thank you for visiting today.

have a lovely weekend!
