January 21 and 22, 2012

This double page background is gessoed with tissue paper over it, then covered with matte medium. The glass mirror is a magazine picture with part of the glass made transparent with packing tape. (Secure packing tape on the image and wet the back and rub gently until the back paper is gone. The ink from the front will remain.) The lady is printed on transparency. The words are stamped and the music is torn from a vintage book and distressed.

The background is a mix of acrylic paint and gesso, topped with alcohol ink. The frames are slide mounts wet embossed and the leaves are transparencies with wet embossed images. The tipin is decorated inside with a napkin and fibers.
