Creative Artiste ~ #126 Anything Mixed Media Goes

 Hello Creative friends 

Welcome to May and a new Challenge #126 @ 

My DT project is an ode to Vincent Van Gogh and my 
own take on one of his Iris paintings from May 1889. 


His own painting ABOVE speaks volumes to me, 
a timeless interpretation of life and situations..

Dismissing all the blue/purple Irises I focused on 
the stand alone single white in my art journal..


On a stencilled background scraped with paint the Iris is stamped 
multiple times, cut and layered for dimension, painted with white 
gesso and given a glittery beard it's stem and leaves are made from 
old packaging, painted, coloured, cut and fashioned into shape. 


Laid upon old (on the turn) coloured texture paste, 
I added twisted beaded wire to ground the Iris.. 

Edged with stitch, washi and a strip of hand dyed 
lace, gold paint lightly tickles those raised areas.. 


I hope we @ Creative Artiste can inspire you to share YOUR 
Mixed Media Creations.. there's plenty more to see HERE..

Stay Safe & Creative
