So I finished the Wed. postcard early Thurs morning, and started this one to finish in plenty of time later, and then Aerin was finishing a report and hogged the computer until after I had fallen asleep for the night. We may need to expand the family network. Heck, I might need my own machine. What a thought.

This is the last of the leaves for May. It is the back of the fabric I was painting with both transparent and metallic paints to see if I could get the metallic to show through the sun printed paint. It almost worked – you can see the outlines faintly on the front – but when I turned it over the back looked so organic, and interesting, that I used that instead. It felt weird to have real edges again. I liked the fringey edges, but I am guessing they wouldn’t mail well. I’m not sure how wedded I am to the whole mailing thing though. The biggest issues for me seem to be size, and sticking to the theme somehow.
