This is my second mixed media painting. I included a newspaper headline about the All-Star Game and a photo I took of Mariano Rivera. Also included are pieces of a scoresheet from a previous game and a pressed fern. I had difficulty with this composition, especially the painted elements. The paint was too opaque and I couldn't wipe enough of it off. I forgot to cover the newspaper with gel so it was very bubbly. I had to glue it down. This and the flame girl were created in one day - not enough time for the paint to dry so I could apply more layers.
