Special Delivery

Special Delivery is layered with paints, and collaging. I used Valentine napkins for the red hearts on the right, and added some tissue paper, rubberstamping, gold leafing, and some delicious teeny tiny heart stickers I just picked up. The heart she is presenting is collaged using pink tissue, and painted several times with 3 different colors of paints. It’s rubbed with gold paint and topped with XO, gold leafing, and teensy red rhinestones. Her dress and hat are collaged with some Christmas Kleenex I picked up last year. This just shows you have versatile mixed media is. It’s only as limited as your imagination. So let yourself soar! Step out of the “art” box and dig through your junk mail, your kitchen, and even your make up bag! She turned out bright and cheerful and who doesn’t want a special delivery of LOVE? Happy Monday. I have 5 or 6 different paintings on my desk at the moment and some ATC’s in the planning. I have quite a bit to do this week but as always Monday’s are super slow for me. It takes me a while to get back into the swing of my weekly routine after a weekend. Plus I woke up yesterday with a soar throat and fever so this Monday is especially sluggish. But I’ll get er’ done eventually! Drink your OJ and take your vitamin C! Stay healthy and creative!
