More Mess

So, I'm still playing around with paint, paper and glue.  Still buzzing around like a hummingbird reluctant to land on anything.

 I began this piece by splotching some black paint around the edges.  Ochre then called out to me.  A map of Mexico City followed and then bees and letters and stamps.  And then more and more and more, until I think there is just too much.  Fun, though.  And dark.  Because I am a dark person.
 

This piece came about as a result of an accident.  On a previous piece, I had glued down a piece of black paper.  Seconds later, I wanted to move it.  Some of the paper remained behind.  I quickly reapplied the piece in the same spot as before, but I could not get the streaky, peely paper look out of my head.  I decided to design a piece where paper would be randomly glued down and ripped off before it dried in place.  Then I went on to stamp and scrumble and paint and glue and stick more more more until I think there could be a little much.  Or maybe its just right.  Or maybe it thoroughly sucks.

The point now, for me anyway, is to keep seeing how many or how few mistakes I can make while moving quickly and intuitively.  Hubby asks how much these pieces are and when we should put them on Etsy.  I'm trying to tell him that the point now is just to make something.  Anything.   What I want.  Not what I think will sell.
