I am still posting pictures from July as the new envelopes from August are coming back in the post. Reading again the accompanying comments I am struck how it is the importance of immediacy in the project that keeps everyone focused.
Estella related “I decided to go for the first idea that struck me and not get involved with adding to much – just a bit of pen – The temptation is to add paint and consquently make the collage into a more serious Work of Art by obliterating a lot of the elements. Better to be spontaneous in the spirit of the idea!”
Jude was more serious and in her work pasted some thought provoking speech bubbles from two people in conversation.
“Thinking & talking”
How is it affecting me?
Why? and What is it about? and
What is it meaning?
She comments that she wasn’t sure she liked the outcome … Alas something common to us all occuring much too often.
Bev … illustated here, found her idea flowed easily.
“Thanks again for a really great envelope of stuff – what a pure pleasure to do something uncomplicated, fun and stress free!!! My contribution was inspired by colour (again) – the purpley – pink colours immediately evoked lavender, cypresses, holiday in Umbria…
Tomorrow I will open the new batch!!
