Workshop New Life For

Today when visiting my daughter, she brought home a sculpture that my grandson, Uri 8 yrs, made. I just had to shvitz (brag) a little.  It was chosen among others to be on display at the Dept. of Education in Jerusalem.

This has many layers, I sort of lost control. Has to sit around a bit till it tells me what it needs.

At Reuven's suggestion, the masonite was not gessoed. I really missed that texture

Thanks Jen for your advice on your blog Day 13.
Don't paint when you aren't really in the "zone"

Take deep breaths to get there, I think of my breathing when I swim!
That there is something to learn from failure.

The cuts from series 4 did not seem to make it. I felt it but couldn't really put my finger on the problem. Actually, I know the problem, sometimes I am so afraid of screwing up, I seem to freeze. So I took them all and decided that since I can't scrape, working with crayons, I will try to sort of put a veil over them and sort of start again. Taking my watercolor white crayon, dipped in water and rubbed it over the pieces. Then just started to color again as if it was new and not related to what was before.
