3 = 15

Start with 3 pieces that measure 6" x 64". 


Set them aside and forget about them
until they begin to whisper their discontent. 


Listen to their pleas


 for transformation.


Let them guide you in turning


3 into 15.

  1. J - 3 pieces 6x64 inches - man that is big - so much potential - and looks like you have listened to the pieces and hopped right into cutting and sticking - so good to see. B

    1. Barry - After spending, at the very least, 2 years in fear of trying anything new for fear that it would be awful, I adopted the Nike slogan of "Just do it" as a mantra to get me through my fear. It works. The 15 pieces are so much more interesting than the 3. Enjoy!

    1. What comes next? The not-so-interesting work of preparing them to hang on the wall, photographing and submitting to exhibitions. Or the answer could be 16. Not likely as I tend to work in multiples.

      It did feel liberating to cut the long pieces down - especially as each smaller piece is so much more interesting than the whole was. Let's see...perhaps 20 should be next... Enjoy!
