Back at TAFE and it looks as if it will be a challenging semester. One of the first homework tasks involves one of my least favourite things - collage. But my results are ok and maybe I have finally found a way to work with this technique. The inspiration given to us was shells and after some fiddling I decided to paint the shell using the paint mixed from the first term painting class. Surprisingly it was still ok. Once painted I glued on white tissue and when dry painted it and the background. The picture on the right is tissue glued over the paint but not yet further painted.



A couple of weekends ago I was down at the beach, the weather was very windy and I tried to get a sense of this with my photos. The first one looks fairly calm but the others show the rough weather better.
