GARDEN OF TO-MORROW
Here's a small mixed media piece done on a 5 X 7 board canvas. I used raw umber, yellow ochre and white acrylic paints to make the mottled background. The music piece and the image of the girl came from the vintage resources site. I found the treble clef during the outing with my art class to the junk shop in Raymond; it was actually an earring (not a terribly pretty one). I used a rosette from some tissue paper to make a background for the clef. The butterfly wings I've given the girl came from a magazine, and the butterfly to her left is a sticker. Her crown is cut from some scrapbook paper. It's all finished off with gel medium as usual.
