Painting is Finished

It is finally finished......to recap.....I had to take 3 historical works of art and combine an element from each of them together. (Renior - the Umberellas, Jack Vettriano - woman with the sunglasses, and another female artist, but can't remember her name, but her piece is called "The Burial" - the crouching man).  I also had to take modern images (like the pig, fish, girl holding the rod, and the tree) into the picture somehow.....this is what I came up with and I LOVE it. 

I used bubble rap, collaged assorted paper (background), white paper roses, stamps, wax crayon (umbrellas and melting colors), and scrapbooking paper...oh, yes and my imagination!  Tell me what you think!!

FINAL Painting....In Progress!!!




My FINAL painting project.... it is suppose to be different figures from different historical paintings put together with other modern images in a collage kind of composition.  Painted with acrylic on panel board (4' x 3') so it is quite large...for me anyway.  This is in progress...stay tuned, more to come!

Spoke 2 Soon!!!

Just found out yesterday that I need to take another Art course to finish my requirements for my BA, soooooo that means I'll have to do a bit of rearranging for my semesters.

I have to registar, this fall, other courses that I need to take.  IF I'm not accepted into the Faculty of Ed to do my practicums then I'll have to take the required courses that I registard for.  If I am accepted into the F of E, then I can take these courses at a later date. 

I was not happy, as this may add another year to my "Educational Journey".....so everyone...pray, pray that I get into the Faculty of Ed this fall....I need all the help I can get!
