I had laying around. This small painting on canvas is based on a paper shop towel that I had used to clean brushes or sop up extra paint on a bigger piece. After I rinsed the paper towel, I attached it to the canvas with extra-heavy gesso and medium. Then I just kept adding the odd bits of leftover paint to it. I wanted to find out if the paper towel would stay in place on the flexible substrate of canvas. Still don't know for sure, but this one doesn't look too promising.
This one incorporates parts of a paper towel, as well as parts of deli paper and even some pieces of plastic bags. No rhyme or reason to any of it, just experimenting to see what would happen. . .

Fabulous textures and colors Ms. Mary! Your creative juices are in flow!
These are the kind of things that I just love...the ones that just "happen" when you are least expecting it and just "playing around". Don't you feel the same way? There is always a bit of playfulness that comes through and somehow, always a deeper meaning when the piece is complete. Keep it up!
I love that second one.
Leslie: Thanks for your support.
Teri: Yes, I certainly do feel that way. Some of the things I like the most have been created when I was just messing around.
Jazz: Email me you mailing address and I'm going to send you something. . .
