For today's entertainment I decided I wanted to do another tango.  Just wanted it to be a simple fun piece trying out an idea I had earlier.  Before we moved I had the idea of burning a piece of sheet music and putting dancers on it.  Because I find the lines and drama of these Latin dances hot I thought if it looked like they created so much heat, it singed the sheet music, it could be a fun double entre.  Since it was still rather cold when I originally burnt the paper, let me tell you it really stunk up the garage, so any future paper burning has to be done outside.

I kind of like the collage part of this as well and am toying with the idea of doing more collage work.   I wanted to get the additional wrinkles and think it helps to add some texture to the piece and background.  I finally opened my Mod Podge that I got to put putting canvas sheets on board.  Actually learned that many people do use it for collage work.  So stay tuned while I probably will go off on yet another venture.

Thanks much for stopping by to take a look.

Bravo! I love your dancers.
What a super idea! I really like the feel of this painting Nelvia although I feel like her dress should be more flamboyant. I also can't tell if her shoes have high heels - the right ones sort of looks like it does but ... You are such a creative person - great idea!
