Thirty in Thirty Day 25 Last of the Poppies

This is the third and final version of poppies in the yellow field. The  first was day 12 and the second day 15.
All were cutouts from and collage project a few years ago. After cutting the cardboard into 6 x 8 " formats I
saw some had the potential start for new work.

Finished this on with more crayon work and then with oils.

Thirty in Thirty Day 24 Landscape Fantasy

I am coming to the end of the start cutouts from my old collages.  This is crayons on a newsprint collage that also had crayons on it.  Had no idea what to call it ... so named it Landscape Fantasy. I really had fun doing these, wish I had more to cut up.

Thirty in Thirty Day 23 Open Sky

Another cutout from a previous collage on cardboard.  Wanted to work on the sky a bit more with my crayons but they disturbed the thin layer of newsprint.  I may tweak with oil and cold wax at a later date.
