Burnt Offering
Collage : Influenced by Asian screens.
In Asian art, cranes are usually shown in pairs; the loss of a mate is often represented by one crane.
For a friend during a sad time.

digital collage????? actual digital involvment?????? are we photoshopping????
mmargot replied
Don’t know how…just layers.
The crane worked okay though!
mmargot replied
Soxy, I have decided that after many years of trying both, photoshop is like golf – I can’t be taught!

This is so beautiful Margot :) ....the crane/stork , the wax stamp , the desert flowers, the shadows too… all of this :))
mmargot replied
Aw, thank you! The chop is bronze…made for me…to use with Chinese ink… but he died.

Like your contemporary screening, reminds me of a modern japanese print. Regards

Well Margot, you have inspired me to have a go at a digital collage myself. A Rothko one… to be released in due couse. I have not forgotten ‘our project’ – time will tell. Well done, I like the transparency of your. Charlotte didn’t show me how to do that yet. Mine is symmetrical and boring.
mmargot replied
Denis, I work on the buckets, but they are too good alone!
The crane is scanned object, not image. I am too impatient to be taught and make up ways…
John O'Dal
I am jealous of all the comments.
mmargot replied
tsk tsk…jealousy is unbecoming!
Anyway, comments do not a good artist make bad translation
Enjoy!

fasinating outcome
mmargot replied
It prints out rather well on a good stock…not glossy…bit of texture.
“Fascinating” is good.
