Here it is—-the beginning of May and time to look for disintegration. Some of the painted pages have lost color, the clay face lost its shine and the little skeleton is paler than before. Aside from that——–not much. Our materials are too sturdy! It’s time to look into more eco-friendly supplies. I think that is the biggest lesson I learned from step 1 and step 2. Now on to constructing something fun for August.
Again, Thank you, Seth! (http://thealteredpage.blogspot.com)

The beginning—-
You need a few days of continuous rain! They still look as good as new.

We may be glad some of it held up well. It is nice to know that a lot of our art will hold up over time.

What a lovely collection of papers other goodies you have there! I especially like your container and the skeleton. Clever! And isn’t that the truth about items being too sturdy? I was pleased that the Golden Acrylics held up so well… but I would have liked to have seen a bit more weathering on my bundle
Cheers from England!

THanks for the comment on my blog. I’ve been surprized at how strong paper actually is as well.
Seems like I can do a lot more to paper when making art than I thought.

I loved the collected papers and photos with tidbits of lace and fiber. I will have a hard time waiting to see some of your next steps working with these beautiful design elements. Imagine and live in Peace, Mary Helen
