Hi, all! I am SO glad it's Friday again! I sure do love my weekends!
Today, the A Day For Daisies design team is sharing more of the September Club Kit images. I chose to use Flower Maiden 2, and I decided to create a mixed media piece. It's unfinished (because I'm not sure if I'll adhere it to a canvas or put it in a frame), but it's ready to be shown to you!
I was heavily influenced by Danielle Donaldson and her beautiful unique art. In fact, I started taking an online class of hers, but can't seem to find enough quality time to devote to finishing it yet. Hopefully, when the weather's not so nice, I can finish it! And hopefully take more! Her work is so beautiful and it just fascinates me!!
With that said, here's my Flower Maiden 2:
~
She started out being printed (she's a digital image, you know) on a piece of 6 x 8 watercolor paper that I had in my stash. I had already added splashes of color to it using Distress inks at an earlier time. You can also see that I started adding some diluted white paint around her to make her "pop".
~
The heart is outlined with "shine"!
~
And here's a little close-up.

I'll probably share the step-out details at a later date.
But right now you definitely need to check out what the other girls at ADFD have created for your viewing pleasure and inspiration!

I think I'll be entering this piece into this month's The Mixed Media Monthly color challenge. My colors are the same, just very muted.

Thank you so much for stopping by today! I hope you have a fabulous weekend! I know I'm going to try my darnedest to do just that!
That's beautiful, broni, such gentle colours,

Dreamy!! You sure know how to use your colors. She is definitely worthy of a canvas or a frame or something as art for your wall. Happy Weekend!
