What is she guarding? You'll see... a little village.
I used layers of peeling paper and paint for the background, acrylics and oil pastels for the angel, but the real inspiration for this painting was a collage sheet with little houses from my digital kit. I saw it peeking from a pile of collage material and wanted to see if I could use it on a bigger piece.
When I created this collage kit, I used it for ATC cards (2.5"x3.5"). Cutting different elements and combining them worked fine and was fun.
If you purchased one of my collage sheets before, try looking at them with a different mindset. Cut some shapes, leave background peeking through, change color by painting transparent layers over... it can turn into something completely different.
Beautiful! You're always thinking of new ways to use your own art. That's great.

Awesome stuff! I love it!
ReplyDeleteHer gorgeous hair, and the way you have placed it on the left side of her face, it looks so pretty and so , so, like you did it with the greatest of ease.
ReplyDeleteThe background gives me some memories of a wall in an old house we use to visit when I was just a child.
You are so creative! I love all your work, especially the ATC cards! xoxo
