Just fooling around here, using the stock pages from the newspaper as a drawing support. I've tried many different ways of using newspapers as a drawing background - maybe it's the straight lines of the printed paper and the sober stock market news reporting vs. the squiggly ink lines of figurative drawings that attracts me. Often, I will spray with 'make it acid free' or use various acrylic mediums over it to make it longer lasting. For this one, it will be bonded to mat board with Studio Tac after spraying with the acid free stuff. I used ink with some Crayola and oil pastel - it's about 4 x 9 1/2". Thanks so much for visiting my blog!

The background does make your figures float in a nice way.
It's always wonderful trying new ways to paint.. the background looks as fast as the painting..lol
