Tulips generally symbolize deep, perfect love, rebirth and charity. They make ideal gifts for spring, new beginnings or to convey deep affection. Associated with the return of spring, they represent renewal and lasting love.



LIFE'S JOURNEY - Acrylic Collage

 


LIFE'S JOURNEY
Acrylic Collage - 16x16

I began Life's Journey as a purely abstract painting but began to see elements of a landscape so I decided to go with it. I added the trees and hinted at some rocks and a body of water. A very different color palette than I normally use but I love the final result!





BLESSINGS - Collage on Canvas

 

BLESSINGS
Collage - 8x10 canvas

BLESSINGS is a mixed media collage using an eclectic mix of papers, images and stitching mounted on an 8x10x1/2 inch canvas. Images were carefully selected to create a unique piece of art invoking a feeling of nature and life's blessings. Random stitching was added to the collage along with an old button and the final piece was mounted on fabric and a gallery wrapped canvas that was covered in hand painted tissue paper. 


The final piece is ready to display by hanging on a wall, propped on a shelf or on placed on a small easel.
