Survivor

Since posting the photos and information below, I have worked on my piece for the 'Night' class.  Here is today's work.  It has taken on a title as well, Survivor.  I added a portrait that I did last year or the year before entitled Navajo Woman.

I am taking a journaling class from Juliana Cole's called Book of the Night.  I am a bit behind but decided to document my process this morning.  There is more to go and I will show that in the next few days when I get it done and the holidays allow.

 I have taken classes from Juliana before and the process has been similar  in the steps up until reconciliation which is where I ended today.  We painted a light color on the spread and we added glossy and not so glossy magazine photos ripped or cut.

Then we wrote and wrote and wrote across the spread.

We added color using a device of choice that left sharp lines.  The words asked for were poetic in nature, but mine come from an NY Times article

I added a step in the reconciliation part because my inner voice told me to sand and paint using a baby wipe dipped in liquid acrylic.

I tore paper off during the reconciliation process and add more color after the decollage process.

I added line using a white Signo pen and finally...

I added white writing.....I have not read ahead but I think this will be covered with paint.  We shall see.
