"Windmill at Dawn"
20" x 20"
Collage on canvas
OMG, you say! What happened? Look at the previous post. What started out as an abstract cross has become a farm scene with a windmill. I had to be true to myself... the cross thing just wasn't working. I didn't like it and no amout of adding to it or subtracting made a difference It did make an interesting under embellishment. Thank goodness for white paint. I used my original painted paper and the black on white squiggle lines I drew on white tissue paper. Not quite as abstract as I have been trying for, but way more to my liking. That windmill picture was on my last creation and I tore it off because I didn't like it there. It has now found a home. I may have to do something about the little bubhble wrap flower looking thing in the upper right hand corner. I signed my name which says "I'm done". Basically, Bethie is "happy".
Ah! Much better. Losing most of the blue helped a lot, and the addition of a realistic object makes it something I can enjoy. I quite like it now. Good fix!
