At the Sunday Postcard Art Blog this week, the challenge theme is BIRD.
I love birds in my art. I had plenty of notice and time to play. Birdie gave me fits though. He’s on a rubber stamp and I decided I wanted to give him a little more color than what was on the background. He began to turn into such a mess. Although I’m not completely pleased, he finally reached a passable appearance which saved him from a trash bin time out. Lucky little fellow. That was a near miss.
I used inks on this postcard, so my attempt at adding some white backfired. I’d so quickly forgotten that the modeling paste put on top of inks takes up the ink colors while drying. But, added texture is good. Right?
Happy Mail Day!
Oh! All these lovely intense colours! And a beautiful dark little birdie who is looking quite miffed (and rightly so) at the mention of being trashed! Love that bit of orange on the right, and love all these colours together actually. They look great with the blacks. You've even managed to find a postage stamps that fits beautifully.

ReplyDeleteWonderful I love all the different color...great job.
ReplyDeleteThis is another beautiful mail art piece that you created. I love that you used a bird postage stamp on this. Your rubber stamp bird is lovely, as is your overall design. I always enjoy reading your posts about your creative process. I chuckled over the threat of another trash bin time out.
