They look great. I've gotten lots of mileage from the painted washi papers. I use thinned acrylics and paint them as they rest on top of recycled plastic bags. That way they can dry in place and be peeled off, and sometimes the drying on the plastic leaves the underside with a glassy appearance. Other times I paint the paper and put plastic on top, scrunched up or pleated, in order to get different visual textures.Jo Reimerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17381636308808299868noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-690400023329277323.post-60481499722605393292009-01-23T12:11:00.000-05:002009-01-23T12:11:00.000-05:00The clothing of the strawberry picker is actually ...The clothing of the strawberry picker is actually made of paper that I painted first, then let it dry, then tore it up and glued it down. I was not able to find any light blue paper to my liking, so I made my own. this is something I am going to do a lot more of. Jo Reimer and I traded papers and her hand painted paper has really inspired me. Jo, there is some of your papers in the green grass, especially at the top, I used the yellow mesh up there too. I love the laser cut lace papers and I'd love to paint a bunch of them in different colors!Elizabeth St. Hilaire Nelsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06785958267715615197noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-690400023329277323.post-40587572211392461672009-01-23T07:26:00.001-05:002009-01-23T07:26:00.001-05:00I can't wait to see all of your pieces.

Since I tried my hand at collage, it seems when I think of a subject I want to try, I see you've already done it. I was thinking about migrant workers just the other day and saw your blog this morning and was struck again by similarity of interests! Besides your fabulous talent, you have a very admirable work ethic. You rock!Linda Mahoneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15100267200988186118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-690400023329277323.post-38135715312453965192009-01-23T07:26:00.000-05:002009-01-23T07:26:00.000-05:00This piece is so detailed, amazing layers!This piece is so detailed, amazing layers!Robin Pedrerohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07641779979066197497noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-690400023329277323.post-40350880969425504792009-01-23T04:19:00.000-05:002009-01-23T04:19:00.000-05:00Wonderful work.

My kids and I picked strawberries when they were young from some of the many U-pick farms in Oregon... big red juicy berries that stained our hands and mouth and left us sticky with juice and hot from the sun. This is beautiful. Good luck with you show; I hope you sell out, but even if you don't your work will bring joy to everyone who sees it.Jo Reimerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17381636308808299868noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-690400023329277323.post-66529936840887146642009-01-22T18:14:00.000-05:002009-01-22T18:14:00.000-05:00i would just love to be there Elizabeth and see al...i would just love to be there Elizabeth and see all your work up close, it is so very beautiful.
