from kathy


on the back, there is a note calling this a zen circle. kathy has taken some classes with *kaz*
i'll try to find a link to his work. she's learned some really cool techniques to make circles. i can't tell what she used to color in the spaces. it is shiny and very cool.

  1. This is different and really cool. I want to try that on an address, with the letters a little scribbly and paint in someof the gaps, thanks for the inspiration!!

  3. beautiful. love that circle. thank you for sharing this piece, kathy. i find it so difficult to put a stamp on this type of artwork, but on yours it seems possible.

  4. thank you jackie
    btw, if i remember the pens i used to fill in the gaps were gelly rolls
    i have used folded pens and brushes to make circles sometimes with an un-centered image in the middle
    they are really fun
