Day Twenty-Nine

I have been working on the big blue fluffy biteyou's background tonight.  I think I am going to call those pointy things mountains.  The two pointy things on each side of the collage are going to be towers of some kind (I think)...for now...maybe.  I outlined the various pointy things and added white Unyru paper to give a hint of snow.  I have LOTS of work to do, obviously, but at least I have more of an idea now.

Tonight's starting point.

Pointy things...becoming mountains.

Camera can't focus on this very well...old, old tissue papers from a Japanese sample book...the white papers are yellowing.

This tissue has a small flower design.

Where the torn paper is going.

How it looks for now...I am sure it will change.

White Unryu paper as a snow cap for a mountain.

Hmmm...not bad...but I am sure it will change, too.

More snow.

More mountains...more snow.

Not sure yet if this is a sun or a moon.

This pointy thing will become some sort of tower.

So will this one...a stripey tower.

Where I am leaving it for tonight...I will just overwork it if I keep at it.

I have only glue-sticked the papers on...they need matte medium...and I have a feeling they won't look the same after it dries.  Like I said...there is a LOT of work to do on this still.

Day Twenty-Eight

This afternoon I was just tired of looking at the mostly red collage.  Tired of the colors, the stripes, the characters, the rotten job I started on the bear guy, and I am just tired of it being so busy.  It is getting a coat of phthalo blue.

buh-bye-eee!

Well...I was not expecting this result!

Tonight I worked a bit on making adjustments to the big blue fluffy biteyou's eyes.  I made the brown paper part larger and laid the smaller brown circle on top.  I re-used one of the black dots, but had to re-cut the other one.  I also painted the middle of the sun/moon.

I am still thinking about this one...not sure yet where it is going or what it is about.
