After the recent, very successful KAIROS exhibition
at The Corner Gallery, Carshalton Beeches, I decided to slow down for a bit, and have some fun! I'm not too good at repeating myself, and love to play around and experiment with new ideas and techniques.Paper Lamination is a technique that I have touched on, so decided to have another go, but on a smaller scale.
The three pieces here are quite small, but I wanted to see if the idea I had in mind would work. I used torn up news print, just in black and white, no colour and appliqued black and white fabric, (apart from the pale blue vases) and paper onto the laminated newsprint. I stitched them in place, and these are the results. The third piece down I have made into a birthday card for a friend, and the other two examples have been stuck down onto a small canvas. I quite like the efffect of the black and white, so may well think about producing a larger one.
