Time for another clue...this one is of the page Tamara created for Shelly book... This one had me wondering for a while...but I think I got on more or less the right path eventually...not at all sure though!
I'm really finding it a challenge not to share these! I have a little notebook at my workbench where I write a quick reaction to the pieces as they arrive, and then another bit of documenting as I complete the page - is anyone else documenting in any way? And, we can't even share the words!!
My efforts on Shelly's page, which are now winging their way to JacQ, used mica sprays, gold pen, black pen and photoshopped image printed onto the page. I had to go on a mission to find a model to strike a particular pose for the image I wanted to use...thanks to the daughter of my good friends, I got exactly the expression/pose I was imagining!
I'm looking forward to seeing a few more clues up here in the next little while as this next round moves along!
*If you find you're having any difficulties with the blog - give me a yell and I'll do whatever I can to sort them out - it's lots of fun once you get the hang of it!

Tamara, this little snippit looks really interesting, but what is it??
In answer to your question I am also documenting down my thoughts on receiving a book and also what goes through my head in terms of what I think the theme is about....the book I am using is a children's picture story book, I have painted some of the pages over with gesso or other acryclic paint, sometimes leaving some of the image or text showing and partly obscured. when I think my page is complete I write a bit about what I decided to do, the technique and materials used I also use bits and pieces of left over, paint, images and collage pieces from the actual artwork, this helps me to remember in a different way about what I've done!
It is hard not sharing these words with anyone in the collaboration....perhaps we could each choose half a dozen words from our journals to 'list' with the clue, in no particular order? What do others think?
Hey Peta,
I think you may have been a bit tired when you read this. Its a clue from my page but its Tracey's blog post! I'll take the mix-up compliment though!
Good clue Tracey. It's nice to start to see the interpretations of your own work - fun! Re documenting and more words - I have been documenting thoughts and reactions as I go in a personal journal. I have enjoyed this and I find it a good place to think in more concrete terms about what each Whisper means. I am happy to add words to clue snippets - is that just on this blog or on the clue sheets for each Artist's Whisper?
