hearts


Continuing ~ sporadically ~ the spring clean/throw-out.
Gave this picture to my darling mother c.1972, it's a good
example of what not to do: the gold paint corroded, & the framer
glued the paper to masonite. However when I took it out
of the frame today, I saw that the gold paint, which was higher
off the paper ground, had left a ghost image on the glass.
Much nicer effect, if only there was a way to etch it on.

Here's a link to a kind of Phillip K. Dick world, who's one of
my favourites in the sf genre, but I certainly don't want to live
there. What do you think?
