Random stitching was added to the collage along with an old button and the final piece was mounted on burlap and a gallery wrapped canvas that was covered in hand painted tissue paper.

HEAVENLY DELIGHTS - Mixed Media Collage

HEAVENLY DELIGHTS
Mixed Media Collage - 12x12x1.5 Gallery Canvas

There is a romantic, vintage feel to this mixed media acrylic collage. Pink roses, a bird, music and soft pretty colors.


HEAVENLY DELIGHTS was created on an 12x12x1.5 inch gallery wrapped canvas. The photograph of the bird was attached to a canvas and enhanced with acrylic painting, stamping, collage papers, button, lace and rice papers to add color and texture. The artwork extends around the sides of the canvas so it is ready to display on a shelf, easel or wall.
