| "Home Is Sweetest" Original Mixed Media Folk Art on Canvas |
What developed was this painting "Home Is Sweetest". The entire quote reads, "Home is where the sweetest Roses grow". This piece took about a month, and there was zero idea of which direction it was going to take when I started it.

Once the house, and the flowers were on there, I knew what the quote would be but again, it took awhile to think of a way to apply it that I wanted most. Some parts of this piece were working on successively - over a couple hours, and other parts where a "5 minute add-on" that I thought of randomly walking by it. Either way, I think that it came together quite cohesively - considering how it was worked on.
Materials: collaged papers, acrylic paints, stamps / ink, tissue papers, washi tape, rub-ons, text-stickers, puffy paint, gel medium / collage medium, UV protective coat.
It made me happy working on this piece, and I think that happiness emits from it with all the bright colours. I can't wait to create more like this. :)


Love the bunting and your use of stamps! Lovely little piece.
ReplyDeleteI love how bright and cheery this is. My favorite is the top section (like the second photo shown). I love all those colors together. For having "zero idea of which direction" for this piece, I think it ended up exactly where it needed to be. It's awesome!
