Game Board of Life

Week 5 of Life Book 2013 is led by Kelly Hoernig.

We are to create a game board using many of Kelly's mixed media techniques.  We are to concentrate on the positive, not the negative (my "negative" blocks are shaded.)

I started out with a bus map of Naples and surrounds.  (I have never taken a CAT ride!)  Paints, resists, etc.

cards from a deck of cards painted; select words describing our goals

My finished game board.  My only regret in this composition, is the placement of my "runner" self.  She should have been leaning forward - by the time I realized my mistake, the glue had dried and it would have been nearly impossible to reposition it without ruining the background.  I figured "how important is it?", decided "not very" and let it go!
