Beautiful colors and textures, and of course, the subject matter is wonderful. I know what you mean about trying to go bigger. I used to always work big, but with collage, I can't seem to work on a large scale.

I love the top picture as much as the finished ones, you could definitely put these in a big canvas painting, even at the size they are, as though they were in the distance. <br />It must really windy there needing those weights on the roof! It's hard to imagine because when I was in Skye it was glorious sunshine all the time but I know this isn't the norm! Love the old and new! <br />Jess xx<br />Jesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17593348601123003194noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2098103047758068665.post-65792194653633233322014-07-13T10:58:21.312+01:002014-07-13T10:58:21.312+01:00love these smaller pieces!
