THE BROOKLYN SKETCHBOOK PROJECT

It's finished!  I've finally completed the sketchbook and all images are on my website and my Brooklyn Sketchbook Profile page.  I am quite sad it's come to an end as I was enjoying myself so much!


I Remember You - page 28

The last section has been about my ancestors - grandparents/ great-grandparents - the people who have made me who I am.  The above image is an old photograph printed on silk and covered by a page from an old vintage book, punched with holes, to give a moth-eaten, antique look to it.

THE BROOKLYN SKETCHBOOK PROJECT

I have finished and downloaded the second part of my sketchbook.  As is usual with me the plans changed mid-stream.  I have now decided to do four sections with 7 pages in each section.  This was helped by the fact I made a huge mess of one of the pages, to the point where it almost disintegrated, so it had to be removed from the book, and of course the adjoining page to it. I am now half way through the third section and enjoying it immensely.  The finished pages are on my profile page for the Project - just click the icon on the right.

The bunting in this sketch is made of images printed onto silk, and transfer gel was used to create the faded garden image.
