WOYWW - returning to my mixed media roots

Happy WOYWW everyone!! Its Wednesday again, still snowing, actually big fluffy sticking flakes as I write this to add to the already saturated ground. We still have quite alot of snow here and more on top is not looking like a fun filled week for me.

So enough of snow woe's here is what's on my desk. My lovely friend Sandra has set a load of challenges for a group of us and this is something I am doing for one of them. I have neglected my mixed media roots for quite some time now and I am really missing it so I have decided to get stuck back in and make time for the thing I enjoy the most.

Before
First I image transferred an image onto one of the MDF man's cog's

After
Then I painted it and blended it all in.

After
I love how it turned out so much that I am leaving it as it is. I might add it onto another project at a later date but for now this is how she is staying.

Thanks for visiting.

She is stunning! What a great piece! I am just starting to read up on mixed media, and took a few classes with Claudine Hellmuth on collage, and Dina Wakley on painting on canvas and stenciling. Hope to learn so I can do stuff like your piece! Happy Easter! Winnie#78
