It's a beginning.
In my attic hall I have hung a half dozen old tin ceiling panels, salvaged from an uptown building that is no longer there. I'll use wood strips between them and around them to give them a more 'finished' look. Into the dozen squares of the panels will go a dozen pictures, a series with a common theme of some kind.
The first of these series is a no-brainer for me. Among us four sisters we have a dozen children, the Dozen Cousins, and they will be represented as the first of the 'Twelves'.
Being a lazy so-and-so I decided to cut Liza and Helen down to size and use the already-done silhouettes of them that have been hanging about, or lying about as the case may be, for years now. The other cousins will get pictures, probably paintings (although you never know if I'm going to get REALLY lazy and use enlarged photos), that are representative of them as individuals from MY perspective.
It's going to be a fun project, this first of the 'Twelves', and I'm very much looking forward to getting to work on it!
