BIRD IN THE BRUSH by Charlsie Sprewell cfspre@bellsouth.net

BIRD IN THE BRUSH

This painting was a lot of fun to compose. It is a combination of mixed media and collage.  First I covered my canvas with modeling paste for texture.  Next, I painted with green and gold tones.  I then made a copy of a bird I had previously painted and attached it.  Paint was applied over the bird to brighten it up.  Raffia and faux reeds were the last items added.  I have never done anything like this before and I am sure I will do it again.  Do you like it?
