Mixed Media Monday Challenge

This week at Mixed Media Monday, the challenge is to use cool colors in your art.  I made these 5X5 mixed media collages on canvas this weekend. I could not decide which one to select, so I have posted both.


They both use a combination of many different papers. Believe is composed of several layers of bleeding tissue paper I made -with a piece of painted deli paper. Mosaic pieces, feathers, stamps, ribbon, buttons, sea glass are some of the embellishments. I have decorated the sides of the canvases also - sometimes with a corresponding stamp, pieces of paper, buttons, they vary.  Hope you enjoy. Your comments are appreciated.
