Wind Power Linda Rupard
I love the sound of a windmill turning. When I was a kid we had a windmill and wooden tank . That is where I learned to swim .
Mother thought it was a lonesome sound but to me it was music.

Early Singing Linda Rupard
This is a 12/12 torn paper collage done on a wrapped wood panel . One of the first sounds you could hear in the country
Is the crowing of the roosters. A sound that I have always loved. So Early Singing seemed like a good name for my friend.
I did this one in a fun workshop at Brushworks Studio. Fun with Kay and 4 more members of our BSAA . Just a bit more collating and I will be done
