Painting - Watercolor On Antique Pages
Description
Another in the series of paintings on antique pages from an 1884 "Cyclopedia of Universal Knowledge". Recently, I was ill for several weeks. I began a series of small paintings that I could manage while sitting up in bed. I used a "Ready For Recycle" 1884 "People's Cyclopedia of Universal Knowledge." It was wonderful to read about the modern farming equipment: horse-drawn plows, and the radical new steam engine-driven harvester.. Those pages I saved for a friend-- . the others became art, one subject at a time. The paper is not destined to last into the next century but the marriage of the old and the new... that was fun.

What an original concept this is, painting on these pages from another era. You certainly have the mark of a truly dedicated artist to do this while convalescing. It's a really interesting effect. like/f
