PAINTED PAPERS BY SUZI DENNIS: February 2008

Saturday, February 02, 2008

I'm tired! I've just spent the last several days re-modeling my website. Still have a few things I'm going to be doing as time goes on, but this is it for now. My object is to make it more "user friendly" and hopefully easy for you to shop! Anyway....I hope you enjoy it! If you are here on the blog because you clicked on "News" on my site, then you have seen it. If you came in the backdoor then go to www.paintedpapers.com to check it out. Would love to hear how you like it!

MY PROCESS

"When I begin a new piece of art, I have no idea what it will look like in the end. It comes directly from my heart to the heart of the person enjoying the art. To me, that is what art is all about. The process I use in making a piece also
involves the heart. My process begins with my "painted papers" which are pieces of paper that I make by "painting" on them. This process does not always involve paint. I may "paint" with thread, crayons, pencils, fibers, oils, acrylics, watercolors - the list is endless. Then I use my "painted papers" by sewing them to other papers, creating a sewn collage and painting the image over that to make the piece of art. Many people have given me things to use, things that are dear to them. Adding these things to the piece brings it all together and makes each piece even more special. The wonderful thing about what I do, is that it can’t be duplicated. I can’t even duplicate it, so each piece remains unique. My goal is to produce a piece of art that touches the heart and if it happens to match the couch, great!
