cigar box monkey

My latest project. I was using Sharpee markers on the gesso base and finding it doesn't really work with the colored ones, anyway. So I am going to just finish with acrylic paint - as I know that will work. I love Frida's monkey. I really like the boarders of the box with the jungley background. It's still my own agenda.

Yes, I like that you left the borders on the boxes and how they weave into the image. Really liking this series and how you did the monkey.

I love your cigar boxes - especially the combination of your new images on that old form (which I haven't seen in quite a while.)
Also, love the new header on your blog.
By the way, nice job the other night with your emcee-ing at Kathy's party. Thanks for doing that.
