Forest magic


Hello Blogland,

I don't blog very often, but wanted to make an exception for this mixed media piece as I'd like to enter into the Aurorawings challenge blog for the Anything Goes for this month here .  I was hanging out with my cousin and teaching her the art of mixed media and decided I wanted to use these two gorgeous images from Aurorwings that you can find here and here called Lady Butterfly 1 and 2.  I just adore Mitzi Sato-Wuiff's drawings.  I used copics to color my fairies and spray inks in Clover (Tattered Angels) and Walnut from Dylusions.  I used Mod Podge to seal my canvas then sprinkled various bits of different gorgeous Martha Stewart Glitters from my stash.  I used a tree branch stencil and light molding paste to get the raised background look.  Hope you enjoy, this was a really fun project for me.
