My Way Of Living

Just sharing a recent collage I've made. I like to create in neutral colors sometimes even I'm more of a colorful person. In this particular piece I've incorporated paint, which I normally don't unless I use a gelli print as a background. #color #collage #paper #handmade #mixedmedia #doodling #paint #painting #background #craft #ink #design

This is a piece I created for a local contest where the theme was "The Diaspora". The Bible refers to the Diaspora of Jews exiled from Israel by the Babylonians. This canvas did't win any price. Next, I'm showing the process to create the focal point, which was over a wood frame. The whole piece was made on a 30"X40" birch wood cradled panel. After almost all the pieces were adhered, I covered everything with black gesso Details of the focal point #3Dobject #altered #collage

I started with one idea for this little panel but it ended being totally different from what I thought. I wanted to use this plaster circle I did a while ago, so suddenly I placed it over the background which was too small (5"X7"), so I finally I mounted it on a 20"X20" canvas. Many stencils, tea bags, only three colors, (medium gray, light gray and yellow, all matte finish paints) and wire. The piece with circles was made with a technique I just discovered and will be showe

I did this painting a few years back and I totally forgot about it. I mounted this Yupo paper on a wood panel to give it a more finished look. #color #design #handmade #painting #paint

I have seen so many altered brushes, especially by Finnabair that I wanted to give it a try. I mounted it on a wood panel #brush #altered #paint #painting #collage #color #design #mixmedia #mixedmedia #handmade #metal #DIY

In this video I'm using some of the backgrounds created in previous videos to make gift wraps, bags, envelopes and cards. I'm also showing new backgrounds. #background #paint #painting #color #design #card #embossed #sew #tutorial #image #craft #simple #mixedmedia #handmade #howto #video #paper #DIY

This is the third of my series of videos creating easy to more complex backgrounds. In the next video I will create more complex backgrounds with various techniques. I didn't cover fluid media as watercolor, India inks, acrylic inks, etc. because I'll be demonstrating them during the processes. #simple #background #tutorial #video #color #design #ink #painting #blog #paper #mixedmedia #howto #handmade #paint

As you can see I have missed a few prompts but I'm doing my best to continue on the challenge. This week's prompt was a "real" challenge so I kept it super simple trying not to add too many images to the ripped page to stay as true as possible to the original. #stencilfiedjournal, #stencilgirl #stencilgirl #prompt #challenge #painting #ink #doodling #blog #paper #color #collage #design #mixedmedia #DIY #stencil #paint

I'm starting a series of videos on creating simple backgrounds to more complex ones. I'll be using them to create projects too. #painting #video #tutorial #paint #design #paper #DIY #mixedmedia #howto #handmade
