Second mixed-media painting of the dress collection. This is on a 6X6″ gallery wrapped canvas with finished sides. I made a silver wire flower, adding that to the sweetheart neckline. Added a row of beads to the waist. I’m finding myself wanting to paint on the larger canvas after finishing dress one on the 14×14″ canvas. Tomorrow maybe a day for canvas shopping!
Tag poem
I’m starting a series of seven mixed-media paintings. This first painting is on a 14 X 14″ gallery wrapped canvas. All of the pieces will be about dresses. I’m trying some new elements, the wire hanger and rick rack are two I’ve placed in this piece. I’ve also written a poem for this piece titled The Dress. This first painting I wanted to share a brief part of the process with a slide show. I trying to stretch myself and explore a bit.
