Text-inspired Skinnies





Here are four pages I made for a text-inspired "skinny" (3x5) page swap.
Usually if I add words to my art, I do so after composing the piece. In this instance, I had to find text and then create art to support the text. I found this much more challenging. I used vintage text for my finds.
The pieces are: She wanted to go to the ball; She was fat and glossy; We went to look at the moon; and Reach for the moon.
(Now watch; I'll upload them and they'll come out in the opposite order of what I just typed!)

On another note, the sun is back in Juneau--yahoo!

I love these! Especially 'we went to look at the moon' and 'she wanted to go the ball'. Is that beading down the edge? Fab :-)

These are great, Cathy, and all so different! They're all awesome, but "She wanted to go to the ball" is my fave! Hugs, Terri xoxo
