Gloria J Zucaro's "Some Finished , Some WIP"

My friend"Giggles" told me that the PPF link was not working, so I reinstalled it.  I hope now that you can find me!  Thanks so much for looking.

 Except for putting my Permission To Play journal pages together with ribbon, I believe I am finished with the free workshop offered by Carolyn Dube. It was such fun and inspiring to see all the pages in other artists' books, too.  My pages are a little "sticky" so I am considering tips from other artists about sealing them for non-tacky finishes. Hairsprayclear gesso and wax???!

This week I also did some work on a portrait that I had previously drawn and based in with burnt sienna oil paint. It is from my class with Linda Vice at Mainstreet Art Centre in Lake Zurich, IL. 

 Then I added some stained glass-like elements to my abstract "snow" painting.

I hope all of you who celebrated Thanksgiving had a lovely day and delicious food!

I am linking this belatedly to Paint Party Friday and my Twitter, Facebook and Pinterest pages.

      Thank you, Linda. I am enjoying the stained glass effect and making the decisions on how to color/paint each piece.

      Thanks so much for letting me know about the link not working. The story of the eyes...I decided to do some scribble work on her forehead. It looked awful, so i cut out the eyes from a magazine and glued them on her forehead! AND I deliberately glued them upside down!
