I Had the Craziest Dream, mixed media on canvas, 10”x10”
As I continue to expand on ideas and materials used in the 2011 Project, it’s time to works some more with old sheet
music. I repeated a pattern I
started using with old maps in
2009. The pattern is inspired by
the yosegi pattern in Japanese textiles. I then used the pattern in postcard pieces in
2012. This time, using vintage,
1940’s sheet music I also captured the distinct color palette used in printed
material in that era. Much of my
collage work is textile-inspired.
I did not plan for it, but I couldn’t help noticing that this piece has
the feel of 1940’s fabric. This is the first small experiment, more to come….
In the meantime, a clip of Helen Forrest singing I Had
the Craziest Dream from the move Springtime in the Rockies can be found here.
