Junk Mail Art Tutorial


 Here are three oversized junk mail postcards that showed up at our house.  The paper is not as stiff as I like it to be, but I find it stiffens up as I begin adding layers.

I save these up until I have several to work with.  It is more efficient when I can do it assembly line style.  I still get a good variety and it is a good way to build series.

What now?  I will add some kind of layer.  It might be another layer of paper glued on top, but this time I think I will use paint for the first layer.  More tomorrow.....
