Art Piece Number Three


The female galaxy is a gelatin print that I did this summer. Today I went in with a brush and acrylic paint and added more color. A gelatin print is made from jello. I made a collograph from file folders, inked them and pressed them into the jello. The fork I found flattened on the road outside my house. I inked it up first, pressed it into the jello and then put the collograph on top of that.

I really like this one! It's going to be fun watching what new art you create this year.

Thanks. I'm back at work now as well and sometimes that competes. Luckily, I'm a high school art teacher so I sometimes manage to squeeze in a few hours each day amongst the chaos. I'm working on a final piece as an example that I hope to finish by next week.
