Back side of Red/Yellow spread complete

This is the back side of the Red/Yellow color swap spread I blogged about last Friday. I wanted to keep it flat because the front side was so textural.

I began with several different colors of paint chips, then dry brushed gesso over them. Next I cut out and added copied images of Thai kimonos. The really cool thing about these is, Norma, who I am making this spread for, sent me the original flyer that these were copied from. I attached the name of the swap using gold eyelets since I couldn't find any yellow or red ones.

this piece is fantastic - I really like the Thai kimonos - especially the one at the far left. :)
