LIFE'S JOURNEY - Acrylic Collage

 


LIFE'S JOURNEY
Acrylic Collage - 16x16
Purchase Info

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
Purchase Info

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.
