Dream World


This is a little 5 x 5 canvas reconstituted from JoAnns Dollar Bin. (Thanks Sis I never would of thought of that) I drew it all out, masked the little girl with rubber cement then I painted the background, and went on to the little girl. Later I decided to add words because I have been wanting to journal this way.


You can't really see the detail much, the actual canvas is better than the photo but I can only do so much with what I got. I tried to do a close up of the little girl and this is it.

I used inks,acrylic paint,chalks,gesso,rub on stitches, and a black pigment pen for the wording.

Holy CoW! She's beautiful! So much talent you have! What's her name? I want her! She's so beautiful. I hope you put her on your wall so everyone can see her. As I scrolled through your blog, I was amazed at your incredible talent. Good luck with all your creations.
