back to canvas

i have been working small and in my art journals- which i love to do, but, sometimes i have to stretch my creative mind and fingers a little and work big again. this canvas is the first mixed media piece of many (i hope....) as i build on a concept i have been working on in my head.

i am currently working on a 24"x 30" canvas. here are a few sneak peeks for you:


i was using some of my new paint....which i discovered i so loved (thank you mom!). i love how you have to look close to appreciate some of the smaller details. 

i have used a mix of supplies that included acrylic paint, pencil and a thick, black charcoal, collage papers, and ink.


my pictures do not really capture the charcoal well- but, it looks almost like velvet sitting on the canvas.


happy monday!
