Touching the Sky



Remember when you were young if you could swing high enough your feet would touch the sky.

I think I was visualizing the wonderful cut outs of Matisse when I began constructing the tree. 
The silhouette effect seemed to give the feeling  I was trying to achieve.

Mixed media:
Acrylic, textured art paper, tissue paper, oil pastels, and string.

Misty Morning

This was started in the fall when all the leaves were turning
beautiful colors.  By the time I finished it all the leave were on
the ground.  Glad I have this as a memory.
