CASE-ing myself

I have a screensaver that shows me a series of random photos from my entire collection and  yesterday it showed me one I made about 5 years ago which inspired me to recreate it in a slightly different way. Annoyingly once it had flashed off the screen I couldn't locate it among my zillions of photos so I can't show it to you for comparison.


Mark says this reminds him of the San Ignacio Lagoon in Mexico where we went on a whale watching trip about 25 years ago. But the birds flying past then would have been pelicans, rather than geese, and they fly in a line rather than a V.

I made the landscape by tearing card and paper - for the water, I chose paper that was blue on one side only, and used a tearing ruler to get a straight-but-rough line to look like breaking waves.

I placed the torn strips on the card to gauge the position of  the rising sun then removed  them and sponged in yellow and orange inks to give a sunrise. Then I stuck the torn strips in place and added a stamped sentiment.

I am sharing this with
