I'm an Autumn person when it comes to colour. A professional (hello Tina!) told me so. The rich orange and green hues bring out the best in my skin colouring giving me a healthy glow. I love painting with these colours too - a peek in my acrylics box will see rather a lot of rust!
I started this picture for Inspiration Avenue's rust challenge, but felt it lacked a focal point. It's another of my collage with acrylics, pastel, ephemera and a bit of transfer experimentation. Then, I mosied* on over to check out this week's theme for the Three Muses - Keys! What a perfect fit! The keys have been added digitally to my original picture. Thank you for finding me my focal!
* I have no idea how to spell this word, but you'll get my drift I'm sure!
LOL!!! I had to check a dictionary of course but I think you spelled it correctly, after checking 2 dictionarys I couldn't find 'mosey' in past tence but assuming the normal rules of grammar hold true you would drop the 'y' and change it to 'i'...I knew what you meant anyway!!!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful collage and the digital keys are wonderfully incorporated into the piece. The rustic hues and texture are sublime- lovely art!
ReplyDeleteKeys are so signifigant to me, too.
ReplyDeleteUnlocking yourself to the unknown, I suppose.
Isn't it just more than fitting, you found the perfect spot for your art?
Mysterious ways.
That's all I'm saying.
Beautiful work, Lisa!
xox, Lisa
this is a beautiful piece lisa ... and i'm glad you added the keys on ... gives the art such a strong presence!
ReplyDeleteI bet it's gorgeous Lisa... I love the hues and transfer. I have no idea how you spell 'mosey' either! ;o)
ReplyDeleteYou can't ever have enough rust and "old stuff"! This is a great page. (And, by the way, it's moseyed, according to Webster).
ReplyDeleteWow this is stunning.
