As I mentioned yesterday, I used a bunch of bleeding tissue paper in this new 18×24 mixed media collage:
You can see some of the texture and pattern on the bleeding tissue paper (as well as the brilliant color) in these close-ups:
I love this one. I popped it into a frame almost as soon as I made it, and hung it on our bedroom wall. Our bedroom isn't very photogenic, so here's a pretty bedroom with this lovely painting:
I feel like I should sell this piece, but I'm not quite ready to let go of it.
Thanks for stopping by!
Julie, I love this piece! I’m curious about the tissue paper. Does the color fade over time or does varnish seal and protect the color?

Ditto the above question about whether you varnish-sealed the piece–not only to keep the tissue from fading, but also to make sure it doesn’t continue to bleed? I’m guessing you have to put it under glass if you don’t varnish?

I love working with tissue paper, too – the translucence and little wrinkles are cool. This is beautiful.
