Textured abstracts

1. Seaweed
2. Blue water

Both are ATC's, textured mixed media on paper.

I signed up for an ATC swap called 'textured abstracts' on AFA, so these are a couple of try-outs.  I usually play about with the theme for a while before selecting my finals for the swap set.

The good thing about textured abstracts is I can explore various pastes and gels as well as collage and sparklies on work.  Maybe I will go on to do a larger work using textured abstract...I rather like the technique.
