A Star Appeared Over A Small Building - Christmas 2011

Photo mounted on scalloped card with transparent star. Enclosure containing a lino-cut image printed onto a jig-saw in a cellophane bag. Digital design for jigsaw done on iPad using Brushes App.

The idea for this card started with a snowy black and white photo of my studio, taken in 2010. I thought about the small cold barn in Bethlehem and the star that appeared above it, to mark it's significance. So it became 'A Star Appeared Over A Small Building'. This card is actually about the creation of something and creativity itself. And the card was also created inside this building. I enjoyed making the same image with different media, but printing a four part lino-cut on an uneven blank jigsaw is difficult!
