Circles

Kathleen A. generously supplies me with strange and wonderful papers from her stash. I photograph them before I use them in physical collages. On the left side is a photo of one of the papers she sent. On the right is ink on rice paper that I created and then shot. I put red ink on a rubber stamp "6," stamped it onto the rice paper, and then included it here in this piece. Bet you can't find it!

Why a "6?" Because there are six circles. There originally were nine, but I lopped off three from the right. Naturally, I then had to flip the "9" to make it a "6." Glad I wasn't working with four and eight... ©Carol Leigh
