The Perks of Creating an ATC
This is an ATC that I recently created, called "Off the Radar." Much of my work is fairly small in size (9" x 12" or smaller), but I find it challenging, and fun, to work in the even smaller ATC 2.5" x 3.5" size, and still attempt to incorporate all of the materials and kinds of imagery I use in the larger pieces. Because of the small size, the process is frequently spontaneous, and intuitive enough that it has the ability to ameliorate some of the pressure and angst that can arise when working on a larger piece, and trying to get everything "just right." When I have the time, I try to complete work of this smaller size, from start to finish, at one sitting.

I love this Robert!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Terry! I had a great time working on it:
ReplyDeleteHi Robert! I kind of lost track of you after our lunch with Seth in May. Glad that I found you again through Terry's blog. I, too, love this piece and am amazed how much narration you were able to put into an ATC sized piece.
ReplyDeleteHey, John! Nice to hear from you! Great to re-connect! As I recall, you live somewhere close-by; perhaps in the View Ridge area of Everett. (Am I close?)
ReplyDeleteHi Robert.
ReplyDeleteI taught at View Ridge and live in Mountlake Terrace. I retired in June. I would like to link my blog to yours with your permission.l
