Casablanca 1942
by Debbi Baker of Kalgoorlie, Western Australia, graces the cover of
this issue. The artist loves stippling paper surfaces with ink and using
photocopies in her compositions. She also used rubber stamps, cardstock
panels, brads, shipping tags, and a map from Morocco to fashion her
collage for our “Casablanca: A Romance” issue. You can read
more about her technique in Sample Instructions on page 139. |
