New art that started out as an experiment. This was a black frame with white writing all over it and a 6x6 opening in the middle. I gessoed over the writing making lots of texture and leaving some parts of the original frame showing through. Then I put it away for about a month. I took it out again and painted some colors onto it. I stuck it in a closet for at least six months.
The other day I was experimenting with some watercolor art and made the piece in the center. I remembered the frame and went back to work on the frame, adding lots of mixed media to marry the frame and the watercolor.

I'm a freelance journalist for the Naperville Sun. I do the Blog Log each week, where we feature a blog in Naperville and the writer of the blog. Your blog caught my attention and I think it would be a great fit for the newspaper. If you're interested, I'd like to set up an interview at your earliest convenience.

It's wonderful, Sandy! And I love your "gallery".
