Mixed Media Monday

More cute little sheep.  This is a smaller 6x6 canvas with several collaged elements.  I used acrylic inks for the background and a variety of text and stitch stamps to add some texture.  I add some stenciling using regular acrylic craft paint and water and sprayed them through the stencils, then doodled over them. I'm still playing around with a look that I like.

I hand lettered this canvas.  I'm a little happier with the way it turned out.  I've been practicing:o)

I hope your week is especially joyful.  Thanks for stopping in.  I'll talk to you again soon.

Another encouraging mixed media canvas.  I have had so much fun playing and making these little pieces of art.  The best part is they have been going to good homes, folks that seem to enjoy them and feel encouraged by their messages.  The little sheep were inspired by the lovely art work of Junelle over at her Yes and amen blog.  I love the whispy little marks on her art.

I truly enjoy working with bright colors and splashing paint all over things.

I'm linking up over at Word Art Wednesday, be sure to head over there and have a look around.  Be encouraged! Thanks for stopping by.  I'll talk to you again soon.

I worked up the courage to use a bigger canvas this time and paint a bigger girl face.  I created this canvas for the granddaughter of some friends of ours.  She is getting ready to go back home after spending the summer with her grandparents.  I wanted to remind her of all the things she learned this summer and how much her Savior and family loves her.

I hope your week is filled with joy and happiness.  I'll talk to you again soon.


P.S. I'm linking up to the Word art Wednesday challenge. Head over and take a look at all the art.

Here is the second of my little 5x5 canvas' focusing on verses from the book of John chapter 15.  These little mini canvas' have been so enjoyable to work on and have allowed me to be as bright and colorful as I want.

 

I used gesso, acrylic ink, random bits of paper, water color markers, back ground stamps, sharpies and a white paint pen.  So fun!  I hope your week is filled with LOVE:o)

I'll talk to you again soon!
