New Collage, "Raven's Treasure"

This is a new piece, 12"x 12", venetian plaster, oil, India ink, pen, rust and tea, charcoal, graphite, rice paper and cold wax on cradle board. A friend gave me rolls of paper that I think is rice paper, it is very thin, I have been in drawing heaven :-). I painted some with black India ink and then drew on them with white charcoal.
I get all my drawing out and play, awesome fun :-).
I always love to hear your thoughts.
Have a wonderful weekend. XOXO

Annie said...: Lo, Thank you! I would love you to have it, think about a layaway plan, I have one with my neighbors and they will be paying for two years LOL, they bought one of my 60"x 60" pieces.

kj said...: Oh this one!! The sphere in that raven's mouth says so much I can only feel it, not put words to it.

Fabulous work, Annie. It is time for you to soar where ever you want to go. I think the universe is on your side

Love

Roxanne, I did collage about 25 years ago, a lot, but then went off in other directions with my art, life has brought me back around to it and I am so glad, I forgot how fun it is :-). Thank you for your encouragement.xoxo; April 19, 2013 at 7:10 AM
