Windows ATC Swap

The lovely Patty Clark is hosting an ATC swap over at Milliande's art community with the theme of "Windows". This theme resonated with me and so I signed up and finished the cards last week. I made window shutters that open to reveal a rugged window frame made with granular gel.

The "window pane" is made from a sheet of mica through which you can see a fair maiden waiting at the window for her love.

I used gesso, acrylics, gel pens, stamps and mica.

Let me go to the window
Watch there the day-shapes of dusk
And wait and know
The coming of a little love.
