Gallery talk and hand sanitizer

Tonight’s gallery talk at Nueva Street Gallery should be fun. It starts at 5:00 – hope you can be there. My title is “The Face: An Enduring Iconography,” and I’ve done a short slide presentation of how faces inform and inspire my work. I’m giving away little face shards, as well – and this is kind of interesting because I used the same press mold for each one, yet they turned out so varied. They look like they are related, but not identical. Here’s a photo of the freebie faces that I’ll give away at the event:

OK, now about that hand sanitizer. . . yesterday, my friend Gloria Hill helped me do some experimenting with transferring digital images onto fabric for my upcoming online collage-on-canvas class at Artful Gathering (checkout their catalog). We used hand sanitizer to transfer the images, and it worked! See the pics below, and in a future post, probably the next one, I’ll give you the directions. Till then, hope to see you tonight at Nueva Street Gallery!

  1. This looks so promising! I want to combine some of my photos in my mixed media art and this looks great. Can’t wait for the post. See you Sunday!

  2. Wow! That is amazing. Who’d ‘a thunk you could use hand sanitizer as an image transfer paste! You are such a creative, sharing being. Thanks for sharing and enriching my art work with your experiments. Blessings.
