WIP ~ Collage Goddess
|
Another WIP ~ Collage Goddess II
The above collages are 2 of a series of 4 Collage Goddesses that are a WIP (work in progress). They are created on artist canvas with acrylic paints, specialty papers, clay, and other ephemera. The face still needs to be worked on with pan pastels and more fine tuning will occur as I progress with these two pieces and begin 2 more. I may create more when I have made more faces. My haiku are below ~ Enjoy.

I especially love the handmade paper in your collage--being the paper nut that I am. :)
ReplyDeleteNever heard that quote before. Love it!
Have a great weekend. :)
Your collages have a mystical quality about them Carol. Those clay faces draw me in!
ReplyDeleteThe weather here is much the same as yours. We had a lovely day of 77 degrees and no humidity, after weeks of it...a welcome break.
Hello Carol.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful collages you made - great to be so creative.

ReplyDeleteHi Carol and ArtMuse, hope all is well. I love what you are doing with your mixed media. Really great Job Carol and your Haiku's as always are spot on! Have a wonderful weekend.

ReplyDeleteHello Carol! I love seeing your wips... they look like full moon goddesses right now, it will be fun to see them emerge! I am letting the cool breezes of your lovely haiku waft over to me and away, sending my best wishes to you this weekend!

I love these collages. The textures and the masks...you just keep looking deeper into them. Stunning.
ReplyDeleteThe first one especially touches me today. My son has moved from Oregon to Indiana this week. Temperatures are triple digits. There is heat lightning. AND - humidity. A soft breeze must be such a relief.
ReplyDeleteWonderful artwork and haikus.

ReplyDeleteLove the collages--especially number II. I feel like that's something that should adorn a front door or be placed somewhere in a garden. It's pretty in a very natural way.
ReplyDeleteHarmonious creations!!!
