Mixed Media Daily Postcards for February 19 - 28





Here are the last of the daily postcards for February.  That makes 59 made so far, and I really look forward to working on them each day.  I am using a variety of papers, painted and printed photocopies, old calendar pages, paint and markers, screen printing and block printing.  These always seem to want to curl up or warp, so I have come up with a technique for clamping them with between two sheets of heavy cardboard, cut to size and using the big clamps I keep in the studio for stretching fabric on my work table.  So far, so good.  I also sometimes press the works in progress in the pages of thick books overnight or longer.....

These are really interesting and I can see several quilts evolving from these ideas.
