Day 16: Work to be done ...
Once in a while, I have a request, or a commissioned art work. I am blessed with some kind, patient clients. Several years ago Jane bought "Violet" and took her home.
A year or two later, she bought "Sisters 2"
to take home and join "Violet".
Since then, Jane has asked for another "Sisters",
for her sister, and knowing it won't be the same.
My first attempt is "Drama Sisters". I haven't shown this one yet,
as I want present a selection. Yesterday I sketched a vintage version ...
It isn't finished, but I thought you might like to see it in progress?
I start with sewing pattern tissue and block out my shapes.
Then I start to add in color.
It has advanced a little beyond this,
but I will save the updates for a future blog.
Did I mention that I am desperate for comments?

Gorgeous work!!!!! I can't wait to see the finished product!
The sisters are wonderful. i really like your sketches of them too. Your blog is looking really good!
Thanks Courtney and Marilyn!
I will post again as soon as I have more progress.
I have been side-tracked with another job that will
take a couple of days. So the sisters wait. ;0)
Thanks again.
Just got a chance to peruse the blog. Lucie loves Violet, but also fancies the sister with the stars on her face. Great work! Sheryl
Thanks so much Sheryl, that means so much coming from Lucie, as I know she has an artist's heart! Thank you for looking, I hope you'll check in when you can.
Your blog is great,love the collages!
Thanks so much Karen!
I really, really appreciate your taking time to comment and I hope you'll check in again when time allows?
Thanks, jacki
I really liked the vintage sketch!! Keep posting pics of your progress. How long does it take to find all the material for your collages?
Thanks so much Kelly,
I love doing collages, and I love collecting papers almost as much. Nothing is safe, besides magazines, and tissue paper, I use receipts, old letters, junk mail, newspaper and once in a while special washi paper. My studio is packed with more than I will ever use. You'll have to come visit sometime?
