Exposure times and coverage are different, but this is way easier.
Composition:
Started to plan my final project. Made sketches and abstract studies with prussian blue watercolor. Some were inspired by Helen Frankenthaler's work. I lovelovelove her prints.
Decided to make a long scroll and worked out size. Researched sizes of torah scrolls; there is a wide range-- from as small as 4 inches tall (when rolled) to 29 inches. I decided to make one of the scrolls 18 inches-- because 18 is a good number (chai or life in hebrew) and the proportions work well with the transparencies I have. I am also making a vertical scroll that is 15 inches-- smallish for a torah scroll but a decent size for a computer screen (I realized that scrolls not only reference a very old technology, but a very new one as well-- we "scroll" on computers). Just for fun. In the future-- I would really like to make a very small scroll.
