My next piece that I have finished up is all about....
"dreams"
We all have dreams, but to actually live them, we need wings to fly and the faith to step out with them.
I have incorporated a number of textures, paste, inks, pencils, charcoal, vintage papers and acrylics to make up these canvases.
I decided to create some paper clay buttons...
A number of vintage fabrics were used to create this fabric piece that hangs down from the bottom.
For the focal point, I incorporated solder, wire, metal, acrylics, image and resin.
This is one of those pieces, that the photos do not due justice to. The richness and depth is amazing.
I have listed this in my etsy.




Great piece! Lots of work went into this I can tell!
