Steam Punk Canvas

Hi Ladies!

I made this canvas a while ago and waited for  Sandy to receive it before I posted it.  Yes she has another one of my canvases, but this one is very different.  She deserves it!!


I modge podged papers to the canvas and painted the sides black, brown and blue.  I drew the girl and designed her clothing.


I love how her hair wisps in the wind and her hat I added some feathers to.  I couldn't make the goggles  that usually go on the hat but this was my next best option.  She has a leather belt with a feather coming off it.  I painted a ruffle on the skirt.


I love her boots, I pieced them with the paper to get the design I wanted and I love a little attitude, foot on the clock, my time, stop time, don't rush me, I have forever.....ect.


There are rub-0ns in different places to add flow.  I love the big metal corners and Tim Holtz film strip.


I painted her hair and added the birds, they are a free flowing symbol of her hair.  I love the sentiment, as we are all beautiful in one way or another.


More angles and closeups, I really love this canvas. She was fun to make and I will do another one.


I have been finishing up my accounting so I can concentrate on my canvas art. It is torture to not create for me so I snuck in a card today, that will be coming up later.  First things first. lol

I would like to enter this into the following challenges
7 Kids Challenge Blog #68 Anything Goes

Have a great day
Kelly

  8. What I want to know is - when are you going to make my next canvas!!!!!!!! Kelly this canvas is outstanding and I will ALWAYS treasure it. The way the light is shinning on it right now, I see for the first time some gold sparkly stuff on a net like skirt behind her. I am pea green with envy over your extraordinary talent. What do I love most of all about it - EVERYTHING! But I must tell you her hair is perfect for this. You are my hero!
