Leftover Gesso


My latest project is using up 6 long (4ftby14) masonite panels I got for free at an estate sale. I have two prepped for painting, one in black gesso and the other covered with painted paper. I used a large (wall) paint brush for the gesso & had lots left in the brush. Alas, what to do?

I used some newsprint paper & stencils to get all the paint out of the brush & was happy with the results.

Arranged the papers into an abstract collage for a photo. It's all good!

Happy week-end everyone. One of the last remaining summer week-ends (sigh!). Mornings and evenings I can already feel the fall in the air.

Can't wait to see where these go Marie. I love the b&w collage. Always love the contrast b&w produces.
