Mixed Media Canvas - Whatever You Dream
A 12" x 16" mixed media piece on canvas I made for a friend using a song lyric that was part of the soundtrack of our lives in the early 90's in college.
Lot's of yummy texture using all sorts of paints, mists, mediums, scraps and beads.
The bike gears were given to me by a friend and the grease that remains on them adds just the right amount of grunge! I also got myself a alpha punch kit for metal and this was the first time using it on copper. LOVE this and can't wait to do more!

Art Journal - Exploring Orange
I just noticed when i put my last couple of art journal pages together, that they are all oranges! I never considered that color, well, inspiring, but something about it these days apparently is.
This art journal page was done for Gauche Alchemy using various stencils and my Gelli Plate. Punchinella was used to make the various circles. Even though it's crazy to look at, there's also something a bit meditative about it, which is why i chose that fortune to center it.
This page was also done in the Moleskine journal using various stencils and stamps.
Lastly, this page was done for a art journal challenge for A year in the life of an art journal - to create a page with flowers with an eye peering through. Also heavily used was my Gelli Plate and other stamps.
