30 in 30 - 10th Painting
OUT OF THE NEST
6x8" Collage
$60
This is about 52 layers of paint! Yes, I began with copper background and did a very willowy plantlike structure in a beautiful Emerald. I was inspired by an ad for a deodorant! After placing the two colors on some texture I fooled around with the design until I had a mushy mess.
I decided to cover the whole thing up with some gesso and yellow and since I love the combination of pink and yellow, I came up with this composition which reminds me of grasses, dirt and possibly some wild flowers. I am laying in the foreground just coming awake and thinking I gotta get out of here.
