The earlier version of "Two Eggs" (posted 2/3/2012) needed more work, so I black lined it and added more colored inks over a gel medium in the background. Now the beauty of the original silverpoint was totally lost. Frustrated, I glued a red paper house over the entire drawing, added silver stars and an image of young Elsa with a bed balloon, then drew/threw in some additional trees and flowers using Copic markers. The final collage is called "Balloon Seeking Marble." Experimentation with new mediums can be fun, and not so fun when the experiment doesn't work out as planned!
