Jelly play! 03/05/2010

Here it is the first jelly aluminum scribble! I'm still in play mode with it all but I'm loving the results. Today I'm ordering the fluorescent pigments and some casein binder - very cool! Casein is even more ancient than egg tempera and is made from the whey of milk. Oddly it seems to be used, in this country at least, primarily by native American artists. Cool!

Sunday a trip to Home Depot for more aluminum flashing and some copper flashing!! I've been given a gift of sa paper from Thailand and I'm playing with that as well. Interestingly it is traditionally used in Buddhist texts. It was a gift from my friend Shireen. Who is a gift for artists in Southeast Asia.

Look for more images soon!
