The past several weeks I've been following two artists I discovered on Pinterest. One artist works in collage and she has inspired me to create these two landscapes. I love the look of long narrow paintings, either horizontal or vertical but the idea of a narrow vertical landscape is so intriguing to me. It gives me the chance to practice combining different papers, colors and textures without using up too much material.
My new quest this month was learning to stain tissue paper. It's tricky because tissue paper disintegrates when it gets wet. I found a video showing the entire process but I can't find it anywhere at the moment. If I can't locate the video at some point I'll try to explain the technique in a later post. It's really worth the effort. I used some in both of these collages. I think you'll be able to spot it.

Love these landscapes especially the second one :) If you remember when you watched it you can go to 'history' on your browser and find it :) Thanks for sharing !
Thanks so much, Meera. Good idea checking the history but I have it set to clear every day. Ooops. I think I've found a good video in the mean time. I'll be posting it soon.
