Mostly Blue Collage called Scrabble, Anyone? an exercise in re-use, re-purpose, recycle using dryer sheets and hand wipes, by Conni Schaftenaar A couple of years ago I created a 3D iris out of hand wipes. This type of material interests me, and I had also started saving dryer sheets to play with. I took several of them and painted them different shades of blue, using watercolor pigments, and let them dry. I also painted a hand wipe that I had rinsed clean of its cleaner. A friend tells me this makes her think of a Scrabble board, so I decided to pay homage to that with the title.

Roosevelt, Oklahoma on hwy 183 to be more specific. Since the old tires had been repurposed into this larger than life sign, I added some textures and distressed markings to give it a vintage feel.
