Latest work: "Five for the Books"

When I first began making photomontages, I made a LOT that revolved around letters or numbers. And I see that that predilection continues today . . .

I particularly like the number five, for no apparent reason. Maybe it's because it's my birth month, or because it's an interesting shape, or because it's a yin/yang thing with straight lines and curves, or maybe I'm just weird . . .

So here we have yet another number, this time mixed with hand-painted papers, stained papers, paint splotches, my own marks, and textures.

Five. Number 2,479 in a (continuing) series . . . ©Carol Leigh
