I was honored to win recognition for one of my Posey paintings this month at the Visual Art League of Lewisville Monthly Meeting. It is a group of such talented and varied artists whom I have had the privilege of learning and working with. Many of them have realized amazing artistic achievements and I just LOVE the inspiration that comes from coversations I have had with each of them.
This piece was done with acrylic and collage. I actually tore up a hymn book for some of the flowers and glued them to the surface with mixed media adhesive. I really liked how the old hymnal pages soaked up the paint.
This was a mixed media technique I actually learned from Misty Oliver's Art Journaling workshop and I just tried applying it on a canvas board on a whim. It turned out beautifully.
This painting along with 10 others are currently on display in Spontaneous II - A Three Person show in the North wing of the MCL Grand. Free to the public and open Tuesday through Saturdays, 1-5PM from now through May 24th.
