Angel Beeswax Collage

Wednesday our Altered Art group played with beeswax! What fun! I made this 5X7 canvas with some Cavallina paper in the background. Angel is from the web and dove from a catalog. Whispering Hope was from a sharing friends hymnal! Paper Flower and brad and button too for dimension - wax held these with no problem!

My Latest - HOKIE ART

This is my latest Hokie Art series. I have done 3 but need to finish up the last two. I first painted the canvas with patches of color hokie style and then added napkins, scraps, ticket stubs and other orange and maroon embellishment. I then used distress ink to darken the true whites. Finally, I used rubber stamps with grids, numbers, and manila folder closure patterns to add depth and texture. I will post the next two soon! Happy Easter!!
