The last bit of homework is done. Now I have to collect everything together in a great big pile and get ready to go back to class. It will probably take me all afternoon to finish that task. I’m always afraid that I will leave something I need at home. Thus I take the entire studio with me 🙂
This is a sketch of the aspen tree I have been studying in the spring. The leaves are just starting to grow bigger and it still has its little seed pod thingees. I am not sure what these are called. The assignment was a white on white collage.
Here’s what I came up with. Enlarge the photo to see it better. White on white is definitely subtle.
Here’s a bit closer view. I used a variety of Japanese rice papers to create the tree. I hope you have a great weekend and I will post again once I return from class.

White on white is distinct and the Japanese rice paper is perfect for the delicate growing leaves. Have fun in class.
Thanks Marilyn!
It’s very effective! I like the contrast of material for the seed thingies.
Thanks Lyn, the paper for the seed things was very light weight compared to the other paper. It does make a difference on how they look.
What a fun challenge, it looks great. Karen
Thanks Karen, yes, white on white is a challenge for sure.
It feels very Japanese – beautifully delicate.
Thanks Kim!
