Twenty years ago I was interested in painting paper to be used in collage so I spent some time doing that. After a while I had a drawer full of painted paper, a few very nice pieces and lots of not so nice. I tried to make some collages but not very successfully. Now that I am learning to use the computer to draw and paint with I am finding a use for these old papers. If you look at my pictures in the
digital art gallery you can see some of the patterns I created so long ago. It was so fun to do these that I have been inspired to go back to painting paper so I will have more to choose from. Here you can see that I have been making a wonderful mess.
It will be interesting to see if this shows up in one of my digital artworks.
