Some folks get giddy feeling fabric, others love adding to collections of so many different kinds, many have to get that morning exercise fix.
I LOVE paper.... And Free Paper is the Best!
And free paper is EVERYWHERE!!! This box was at a holiday boutique several years ago.
This paper was from a bunch of greeting card card racks. That was it's purpose. To back and designate types of cards. It came in different sizes and slightly different shapes. It was heavy weight and felt nice to the touch. This was not "scratch paper." I could DRAW on it! Maybe even Wonderful Things.
Oddly, I held myself to taking about twenty pieces. I wanted to lug the whole box away, while screaming "Free paper!! Free paper!!! Yay!!!!!" (Todd would NOT have been happy.)
Self control. Yup. Had a little.
Garage-sale season is coming up..........
Did use up a bunch of smaller papers last night during a two-hour life drawing session. Yay, again! The pieces were not "valuable" but they were of different colors and textures. I prepped some by going over portions with graphite or colored pencils. Played with charcoal and erasers. Concentrated on model's head. Used up about six sheets of paper. Shouldn't have worked on both sides of sheets....; then could have used up more. Oh, well.
Will toss some of the efforts and keep some. Copy notes made while drawing. On other paper.
We shall not speak of Journals and Sketchbooks today.....
Yay, PAPER!!!!!
Grab some, put some marks on it! It'll be Fun!!! Or at least A Life Lesson. Well worth the effort.
Now, back to that Sue Rowe Studios Facebook Page 30 Bear Challenge. It will use up at least ONE more piece of paper - woo hoo! Maybe time for a collage?
Fare-thee-well, on this 19 degree Spring day, with .......snow...... in the forecast.
And, yup, the juncos are still here - sigh,
Sue
