Soothing Repetition
My Project 52 set on flickr.
A quilt made of paper squares covered in random swishes and marks and imprints from brushes covered with excess paint from the color charts I've been working on; mixing all the reds I have with all the yellows to make oranges, all the yellows with blues to make greens, and all the blues with reds to make violet, resulting in a rainbow of 172 colors.
I cut the squares of painted papers to size, "stitched" them together on the backside with small scraps of bright green masking tape and stuck the quilt to the wall for a spot of instant cheeriness.

this is such a treat for my eyes.
love the colors, and love your use of cans as containers!
This is so lovely...and what a creative way to cover some wall space. And inexpensive too! It's funny...when we think of "painting sommething for our walls"...I always think it needs to be this well thought out, planned, sketched "work of art". But what you've done here IS a work of art...done purely out of instinct and fun. I love it... It's inspiring...
This just makes me smile! And guess what...I love the cans. Grouped like that...they're art! What fun!
A beautiful paper quilt!!! What a great idea!
what a wonderfully cheerful photograph!!!
it's always so much fun to pop by. I'm always smiling when I leave ;)
Indeed a happiness boost, that art paper quilt, and all the tomato jars - love them!
The tomato cans with their brushes and colored pencils of possibility give an uplifting inspirational sense to the rainbow wall towards which they point the way. To present and future rainbows!
