Patterns & Textures of Bangor, Maine and Beyond is live on the Bangor Public Library website. Free supplies are available at the Bangor Public Library for community members to use in making crayon rubbings in the community. The Cyr Gallery at the library will display community members' crayon rubbings as well as art pieces done on paper by the Bangor Art Society in August and September.
I did a crayon rubbing of a manhole cover, and then overprinted on top of it using acrylic paint and a gel plate as an experiment. The above piece is 12.5 inches x 27" in size. I like letting some of the design from the crayon rubbing show through transparent layers of paint. I'm looking forward to what the community brings into the library! The city is *filled* with texture and pattern opportunities.
