I can hear the sounds of the surf, smell the vanilla beans and feel the music pumping through my veins. Shall we grab a board and go surfing?
Layers of sunshine, flowers and holiday make up this piece. There are raffle tickets for luck and secret words hiding beneath the paint.
Can you see them?

No surprises here...love this work. The layering of imagery and color are delightful.
ReplyDeleteLove the layers and colors and the fact that there are secret layers. I noticed an outline of a collaged butterfly in the third image and the second image reminds me of cocoons.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your lovely encouragement on my workshop. I'm going to keep the book you mentioned in mind.
Just had me a little catch up and love the Picasso girl with a pearl earring... fabulous... and the spring flowers were wonderful as well... but this is my favourite... we get a lot of hibiscus growing around here and they are just so magnificently show offy if you know what i mean... they are glorious...xx
