IA hands and may flowers #12

This is one of the rare times I'm able to combine challenges - somehow my brain doesn't seem to multi-task with creative prompts....I make something new for each one (very time consuming), but this time I combined Inspiration Avenue's HAND prompt with Lori Moon's FLOWERS prompt and came up with this.  Oh, and I incorporated Diana Trout's free collage method from my 21 Secrets course..... (all in my art journal so I can accomplish that personal goal of working, playing, trying to deal with banish that inner critic)


A little clean off stencil stamping, tracing my hand, floral collage (from a seed catalog), stamps and washi tape fingernails! :)

  12. I can't begin to tell you how late I am visiting for this IA challenge, but I have been unplugged all week. Guess you read, though. So you are another person who has been bitten by the washi tape bug! Really clever use of it. And of course, I fell in LOVE with the idea that you recycled a seed catalog. My kind of art and my kind of friend!! Hope you had a great Mother's Day, too.

  14. Terrie, I LOVE the "theme" of this piece. It really provokes the heart to not think when they're creating and just do. I'm getting there and I think that's why my paintings flow so quickly. I just don't put too much thought into it and allow my heart to just paint with the brush. :)
