hearts (part 3) and done (for real)

The mask pinched my ears and head and the scratchy glasses caused eye strain (I think) and I ended up in a small space with a bunch of people and I was hot and could feel a headache on the way so I left and came home. I took 2 aleve and was in bed at 8pm with a little sandbag over my eyes and soon asleep.

Wide awake at 1AM! Did dishes, started 2 batches of bread, knitted, read a book, and made 6 more hearts (4 here). 

These are my resist hearts. I used various resists, watercolor, crayons, and w-s colored pencils.

The black paper hearts (there are more than what is shown here) are with iridescent oil pastels and iridescent watercolors. The shimmering doesn't show up in the photo and they look great

This was still a great exercise in color selection; blending and overlaying; mixing media, and using resists. Did I ever do this in grade school? I'm not sure. I had fun with it now with my abundance of art materials to use with each other. 

Done with hearts and time for a nap. 

I lied. I had to make a few more heart postcards to sent to a few more people.
