Hello Creative Friends
Welcome to Creative Artiste's April Challenge #81
our theme is always *Anything Mixed Media Goes*
Today my Design Team project is different from past makes,
created earlier this year for a very dear friend going through a
really tough time right now. This piece I never intended to share
hence just one photograph... but today with permission I do.
*I walk with you*
On a tiered photo frame mount I painted a Spring woodland scene in
watercolour, acrylics and inks, dotting Bluebells in gouache along
the waters edge as golden sunshine peeps through it's cloudy sky.
The boot a hand drawn mini version from an art journal piece created
last year is painted and detailed with coloured pencils, cut out and
simply suspended in the corner of a painted wax gilded frame.
.........
I hope you will join our Creative Artiste March #81 Challenge
and share your *Anything Mixed Media Goes* creations HERE.
Creative hugs and the
warmest of wishes to you all

A stunning painting Tracey. The boot is a wonderful symbol of solidarity against the peaceful woodland scene. I'm sure your thoughtful project continues to bring comfort to your friend xx
What a wonderful painting and mixed media beauty, Tracey. It has such a calming and peaceful feel to it. I love the various layers and the amazing boot. What an inspiring project, dear.
Such an original project, with 3D grounds and this focus on the boot: amazing!
Stunning Tracey. So many details, love the boot. The meaning behind the painting is very wonderful. What a special piece for your special friend. Have a creative month. Judy
This is fabulous Tracey, there is so much life to this piece, it's almost like really being there! Take care and have a very happy April, Sue xx
What a beautiful and thoughtful piece you have here Tracey. Love the background and that boot just says it all = Powerful! Hope life is treating your friend better now. Happy Easter.
My dear and lovely friend, I cannot express with enough words how much this gorgeous framed boot means to me and I thank you from the bottom of my heart. It looks beautiful here but it looks even more gorgeous in real life and it has a place of honour in our house. You are the kindest friend anyone could have and I am truly grateful for your friendship. Love xxx
I thought I recognised the boot image Tracey, as I thought it was one of the most unique and amazing 'boots' I had ever seen.....And.....I still do with this fabulous mini version x.
You've got me ready for a springtime walk in nature with this page Tracey. I am loving the boot and the beautiful background. I like how you painted over the mattes and give this piece so much dimension. It's a great piece. Sorry it took me so long to come over as it was a busy weekend, and then I got my covid booster #2 and the side effects were worse than any of the other shots I got. Hope the new month is treating you well. hugs-Erika
