Painting the blues away
I seem to be getting the blues a lot more these days..think it must be my hormones playing up again..the things us women have to put up with. Anyhow I decided to do a lot of mad painting today on fabric. One of my favourite books is Collage Unleashed by Traci Bautista and I always go to this book when I am stuck as it encourages you to just be mad and paint. So if you are 40 something and are feeling low just go and splash some paint!!

Wow wow wow wow wonderful and colorful backgrounds. Stunning.
Cool pieces, Lorraine, and you´re so right with that recommendation!
Great advice! I love your fabric pieces. I was in the same mood today. Didn't really want to make a finished piece, just wanted to splash some paint around.
terrific paint splashes!!
I you are interested, there is a Yahoo group for Collage Unleashed. Do you know about it? She is also teaching online classes from people who can't meet up with her at one of her venues.
insanely gorgeous!! sorry about the blues, but I agree, painting can definitely chase them away. I'm gonna go check out that book now.
Mmmm, yummy colours...they are so bright and refreshing...can't wait to see what you make them into :O))
Another 40 something here who uses art as therapy :) I tend to dig out my pens and just doodle away the blues. Dont care what it looks like as long as Im doodling. I too am a fan of Traci Baustita's work and love that book!
I love it and you got some frustration out too!!!!great idea, maybe tomorrow I will paint some fabric!
Awesome fabric! What kind of paints did you use, or did you use dye? Marva
