Thinking of You…

I created this piece in my studio using a SuziBlu-inspired face. After I finished painting this collage, I scanned it and then added a few textures and elements from deviantscrap.com. I also used a Kim Klassen texture from her Downton II collection.

Life Book 2014 Week 12 Lesson from Finnabair

Week-12-Sample-2-Finished-copy
I enjoyed this week’s lesson so much I decided to create a second piece so that I could actually add it to my Life Book. My first piece was done on canvas, this one I created on 300 pound watercolor paper. I love the textural build-up of the many elements in this technique. I used a vintage image from my digital stash; I liked this woman’s expression. With the month’s theme of Connections, I felt she could represent the connection of women through the ages.

A Life Moment Captured…

Ami-and-Caty-Connections-Week-12

Beginning phase and finished phase of my Life Book Week 12 project. I chose to use an old photo of my daughter Ami with her cousin Caty (who recently passed away). This life moment was captured at my sister-in-law Pam’s wedding. Our theme for this month is “connections” and so I thought this photo was appropriate. Plus, it is an adorable photo of the two of them!
