Playtime

I have been working on some new pieces. Trying to use some colors together that I'm not usually drawn to.

I am useing Dick Blick's Gallery panels, I like the finished look without having to frame them, but they still look professional. All stocked up on Golden Gel medium for the fun to begin.

Started with some cheery colors, did a few drippies and smooshies.

Couldn't decide on colors so I just used them all on the smaller canvas. I get a little impatient waiting for stuff to dry so out comes the heat gun.

This is the largest one, 16"x 16", liking the red with small hints of the other colors. Reminds me of the circus.

I've added some ephemra, old letters, stamps, photos, ticket stubs. 

This one is going to be Troy's Father's Day gift, that is a picture of his dad in the center. I don't really know what he liked to do so basically am winging it.

I like my work to have a little story, and that story can be whatever you the viewer want it to be.

Next step is to add some more texture with paint, stamps and whatever else I can find in stash.

after adding some paint, texture and color.

Have added my focal point, almost done!

Now that is a cute butterfly!

 

Finished pieces!, such a fun process!! The larger one that I was working on for Troy isn't working for me, so I need to add some more smooshies & drippies.

Thanx for joining me on my little collage journey. Hope you see something you like and want to try out. Keep on arting. I would love to hear your comments.
