Cut Paper + Wood

So here we have a photo of a recently finished artwork on wood. I've added some shots that show all the detail and better color my camera didn't capture. The flowers are drawn in gel pen, colored pencil and glitter gel pens on kraft paper. The rest of the piece is a combo of Spectracolor markers, pigment ink pens and acrylics on untreated 3/4" wood. The untreated wood just drinks up the paintss and markers in such an unpredictable way. I love that! The piece measures 17.5" x 15.5".

i think i'll actually list this original in my etsy shop. i almost never list originals, but my house isn't big enough to hold the number of pieces i aim to complete in the next few months, so there you go. : )

  3. Vibrant! So happy and uplifting. Like singing an inspirational song. I am really looking forward to seeing it as a scanned piece. (I just had to replace my scanner - it worked but had scratches in the glass and a fog on the inside! So glad to have a decent scanner now.)
