Mixed Media Piece, Drawing and Free Images

 The collage below was worked over a few weeks.  I just kept leaving it and coming back to it.  I like how it turned out, but it still is not finished.  Its currently on drawing paper and I want to adhere it to something stronger.

 
 The purple is dimensional paint stamped with a foam stamp and then painted a bit of blue in the leaves.

 I'm continuing in my quest to learn how to draw whimsical girls.  Here's some of my practice ones.  Thanks again to Tam at Willowing for her free course.


 



Still working for the look I'm after, and I see improvement with ever practice.  Wish me luck with my finding my style.

 Are you still holding on to summer.  I AM!  I can't even think about how soon we'll see it go without getting depressed.  Here are some images to have and enjoy from Shorpy's and Bumble Button.  I especially love everything ocean and beach!!




  

I was impressed at this tutorial.  Simple and cool.  I haven't yet tried one myself.  Let me know if you did.

Ciao,

Hi,

Thank you so much for visiting my blog. It is so nice to find new people out there in blog land. Your collage is lovely. You could attach it to a canvas and then paint the sides to match. i am sure what ever you attach it to will be great.
Sincerely,
Tammy
