In my last post I told a bit about using sheet music in my fine art – you can see more about that and a photo of work-in-progress here: https://sueclancy.com/2017/04/27/sheet-music-in-fine-art/
While I worked I thought of the music and musicians that I’m honored to know personally – those I get to hear in small places, like cafe’s and homes – where I get to be surrounded by their music, love and friendship…
And here is what the work-in-progress, many more layers of paper and all those thoughts has become:
I’ve titled it “Surround Sound” – it’s 8 x 10 inches – made with hand dyed papers, handmade paste paper and “found papers” (the sheet music my musician friend gave me).
Now it has to dry before I can varnish it and get it ready for exhibit.
Wonderful! I love the texture of the hair and I really like the sheet music background too.
Thanks Laura! I had debated with myself about doing more dye-work to obscure the sheet music – make it more subtle – but for this piece I think it works as it is.
Love it!
Thank you!!! 🙂
