This month I am participating in Make a Mark March. Each day a special mark is featured when doing a mixed media piece. Now you don't always have to use just one mark, but the mark for that specific day must be included in your submission. It is simply a challenge, not a contest so it's all for fun but I have been challenged by learning new ways to incorporate uniqueness in my backgrounds. For example: The dark crackly marks were achieved by wrapping a rubber band around a stick and rolling it in paint, then rolling it on the painting. Each mark is different and lends a certain discord, which adds to the theme of the piece.
