Week 4

In the first new piece that I made this week I experimented with the sander. I painted black paint over my images and tissue paper and then once that dried I used the sander over the entire piece. I then experimented with putting other images and tinfoil over the tissue paper. After I created that piece, I realized I really liked the way my piece looked after I had sanded it and I liked the way the black paint looked. So, in my second piece I used both the sander and the black paint, but I changed the way I was displaying my 50's images. Instead of just cutting them into basic squares, I cut long strips of newspaper, colored paper, the 50's images, and magazine images and placed them all side by side. I then layered on the tissues paper and black paint and used the sander. I was really pleased with the way this piece turned out.
