Roma

This past month I've been getting ready for the Scituate Art Festival that will take place on Columbus Day weekend, October 6, 7 and 8.  This will be my fourth year there.  Every year I try to step it up a notch by adding new and different pieces.  This year I've decided to add a little more color to my work.  This is a wood burning of Rome, 11x14 on birch.  I collaged the sky with squares cut out of magazines, then painted over it to get a textured background.  I really like how it contrasts with the natural wood.
