stage two.....
Good morning everyone - this week it's all about using all the elements I've created over the past two months to create new work - blending the old with the new - assemblage and collage. This is my very favorite part of the process. The new work I've created on paper is now being torn, ripped, layered and incorporated with things like old scripts, salvaged cupboard doors, old canvases, etc. The photos below are details of some of the pieces in process. I will post the finished work towards the end of the week. Have a good one everyone!

Well, yum!
ha! as i was looking at the pics i was thinking that my comment was gonna be, "yum, yum, yum", and now i see that leslie had the same thought! love these, jeane! very tasty indeed... xo
Well, this is a veritable feast! Loving the face images Jeane. More please!
Hi Jeane,
love the ghostly faces too.
I find the layers of different materials exciting.
This must be a very enjoyable process.
I love being in on your experiments, Jeane!
Hi Jeane,
Looking forward to see what the twisted wire in your bottom pic will become.
Yup, totally delicious!
You're part sculptor, Jeane. I look forward to hearing more.
Looking at your header for awhile and enjoying the textures and colors I noticed a rhythm or repeating ridges. Was the face done on cardboard?
Stage 2...what fun...watch out... the ripping, gluing, wire wrapping...beads and all that wonderful waxy stains. I especially like the last photo...!! JOY for sure!
You are just too amazing. Love the way you think, and create.
can't wait to see the finished works-- so far looks very intriguing and inspiring-- I need to get back into my studio and start experimenting-- you are giving me the go ahead--
oh, wow. this is neato!! thanks for the photos. I'll be back to check out the rest.
Wowza! These are phenomenal. I'm loving all the scratching, swooshing, smearing and wax. Have a fantastic week. I'm thinking you're having a great time already!
How exciting!
I can feel those creative vibes bounding through the ethernet!
Can't wait to see the finish!
Hurry,,,
I'm excited by all this Jeane...liking the words "torn, ripped and layered" allot.
xx
I love this action plan for the week and your bold intent! These shots are stunning already, so I'm looking forward to seeing what emerges.
Jeane, these are so cool! It has been wonderful to see how each step of your process leads to the next. I am waiting with impatience to see what's coming up!
well thanks Leslie :)
good morning Lynne - tasty & yum - two very wonderful words xxo
thank you Heather - the faces are like my doodles when I need a break :)
thanks Kayla, and yes, it is a VERY enjoyable process :)
thank you Carol - love having you here :)
hello Derrick - well those twisted wires have been around for about ten years - there are friends wishes wrapped in paper and then wired and they hung outside my little shed for years - these are the last ones I have left :)
thank you Willow - delicious is good :)
Hi Shayla - yes, the faces are done on cardboard - when I need to just doodle, I use my scraps - it's a good way to make collage pieces :)
pure joy Mary Anne - it's a time to just release any attachements I have made and make the work stronger for letting go :)
good morning Z! ditto xxo
definitely go ahead Donna! life is short!
hello Chris, thank you and welcome :)
I am having a great time Melinda - it's taking all the energy put into the works on paper and pushing it a little bit more xxo
you are so funny Babs - Hurry - I'm one speed - medium and falling backwards - well not literally, except maybe a couple of times, but like, making a big mess out of what seemed a good idea and then having to find a way to fix yet another good idea gone wrong - always seem to be fixing mistakes but continuing forward :)
some of my favorite words also Jo - finding the best spots on a work and then ripping that out and then the rest becomes better somehow - anyway, you know xxo
good morning Annie, me too! who knows what will happen :)
Hi Elizabeth - thank you, me too!
Oh Jeane .. you are amazingly talented .. so truly talented .. gorgeous!!!!!!!!
It is always fun to see what you are up to. I wondered what you would come up with for the "ghost" faces, love how you put the pieces together. You are an original, Jeane!
How liberating that you can bring yourself to tear up your beautiful works of art to take things further. I adore the work you create on paper and so glad I found you through flickr! I shall follow this process with great interest. I am sure what you create next will just blow me away!
Carolyn ♥
good morning Daryl - thank you, xxo
Hi Maggie - thank you - this is so much fun to have all these elements available to work with - AND I waxed the door pieces with my new brew - thanks so much :)
Hello Carolyn - well, yes, liberating it is, but also only just a few paintings are good enough to stand alone so they make wonderful elements of assemblage - so nice to see you here :)
These are incredible..a totally visceral experience for me..
You are driving me to do art again..bless you for that...
ooooo I've missed a lot of art goodness around here. I love the sound of those cupboard doors. x
Oh WOW !!!
I love this...cant wait to see more. The collaging, mixed media and those haunting faces...amazing!
Jacky xox
good morning Lyn- thank you and I truly hope you are doing art again! xxo
well what a fabulous surprise! Kate! so nice to see you here or anywhere! thank you xxo
Hi Jacky - thank you - I finished up the pieces yesterday, so post will be up tomorrow :)
Ooh, I love all the materials you've used. Especially the Music! BTW, The Itty Bitty Buzz in Port Angeles, WA is where the show will be in April. Would love to see you there :)
What a coincidence. I've just started to combine, tear up, and redo several different works- incorporating bits and pieces of what I like into a brand new work of art. It just seems like the rebirth of something even better! Thanks for sharing this wonderful process. Can't wait to see your follow-up posting!
good morning Brenda - oh, that is fabulous - I use to know the owner pretty well, but have lost contact - I won't miss it! :)
hello Jill - yes, I agree - it's the rebirth - thanks for coming by :)
