CONTEMPLATIONS OF THE HEART
I'm revisiting a beloved image from the vintage photo site for this mixed media piece, this time in color. I've used a 9 X 12 board canvas leftover from when a still-life I was working on at school got destroyed over spring break. The background is acrylic paint and tissue paper. I colored the tissue paper with metallic marker to pick up some green from the image. I used pearl beads and confetti hearts and stars for accents, then finished it all off with gel medium and a spritz of Krylon. I need to find a pretty, ornate type of frame for this one.
