simplify

If ever I've had a crush on an alpha stamp, it is now. I vow to love it forever and ever, amen. I want to hang it's poster in my bedroom.

I started by drawing a circle on the background paper (SC grid paper!), and stamped the full words around the perimeter. Each time I used a different letter stamp, I'd stamp around the outer edges of the page in a somewhat random manner, making the stamped images more dense as I got closer to the circle. It was a very therapeutic process, I must say. Once I was finished stamping, I used the neon orange Mister Huey to paint in the "simplify" words, and watered the mist down quite a bit to add just a shade of color to a scattering of letters in the periphery.
