Been busy get­ting the house sort­ed. But I man­aged a cou­ple of hours here and there last week. This is the result.

Three of the back­grounds for the house of myth­i­cal crea­tures. You’ll notice that none of the red and orange paint­ed paper that I first put on the card stock cut-outs can been seen. That’s just the way it goes. I start in one place and end up some­where entire­ly dif­fer­ent. I have two more back­grounds that I am fair­ly hap­py with and one that failed utter­ly.

I can’t imag­ine what I was think­ing when I put both the bright yel­low and bright orange on the same page. I’m blam­ing it on the fail­ing light. I can’t work with­out some nat­u­ral light and around here in the win­ter you lose use­ful light around 3 or 3:30pm. (On the days you get any at all. Today it isn’t bright enough out to tell brown from pur­ple and I’m in the office build­ing data­bas­es and web­sites rather than the work­room play­ing with paper.)
