This page was one of those pieces that you work on, painting and collaging and then all of a sudden, it's dull and muddy. It has at least 4 layers of paint and 3 of paper.
I found so many different versions of this rhyme. When I think of Mary Mary, I always think of Mary Lennox from The Secret Garden (one of my favourite books). But in that book -- it never mentioned the maids in a row -- it said "marigolds".

I love this page!
Wonderful pages Martha
I wonder what the origins of that rhyme are?
I've enjoyed looking at your lovely work on your blog since visiting for the OWOH event. Really beautiful stuff you do!
Oh, yes, my youngest dd is in her last semester of college, going to be an elementary teacher. Right now she is student-teaching with kindergarten ages. I thought of her when reading of your projects with your children. She likes to incorporate art into learning and I see you do, too.
