Several posts ago I showed these three 6 x 6 wooden boxes that I gessoed and collaged with a variety of papers, handmade and recycled.
Yesterday, I worked on them, wanting them to both be a unit as three paintings, but also for each to be able to stand alone. First, I sketched my drawing across the three collages with watercolor pencil. Then I added first layer of paint around the elements.
My challenge will be resolving the elements into recognizable things without losing the cool look of the collage underneath.

I like! Very interested in seeing the finished piece. Cool to watch what you do and then also have you tell us how you are thinking the process through as you work.
Thanks, Incognito! I really appreciate your encouragement!
Thanks for joining me, Elezabeth, your work looks quite interesting to me:)
I like what you did. The effect, especially since the pieces connect vertically, is like stained glass window work.
Thanks, guys! I worked more on it today, and I am trying to decide whether I'm going to show it. It is very hard to keep these things to myself!
