It had been many years since I had tried my hand at collage but when our local Art Talk Group decided to have a different theme for each meeting I decided this would be fun way to capture Autumn for this months theme.
I had the best time ripping apart old magazines ...
Sing along to the song Autumn Leaves sung by Eva Cassidy:

Sing along to the song Autumn Leaves sung by Eva Cassidy:
The falling leaves drift by my window
The falling leaves of red and gold
I see your lips the summer kisses
The sunburned hands I used to hold
Since you went away the days grow long
And soon I'll hear old winter's song
But I miss you most of all my darling
When autumn leaves start to fall
Since you went away the days grow long
And soon I'll hear old winter's song
But I miss you most of all my darling
When autumn leaves start to fall
I miss you most of all my darling
When autumn leaves start to fall
The falling leaves of red and gold
I see your lips the summer kisses
The sunburned hands I used to hold
Since you went away the days grow long
And soon I'll hear old winter's song
But I miss you most of all my darling
When autumn leaves start to fall
Since you went away the days grow long
And soon I'll hear old winter's song
But I miss you most of all my darling
When autumn leaves start to fall
I miss you most of all my darling
When autumn leaves start to fall
Lovely dimension and colors. The print adds extra interest. Very nice!
ReplyDeleteLovely! I had forgotten that song - it was my favourite from her Songbird CD.
ReplyDeleteLove this little canvas! And I LOVE Eva. She had the voice of an angel! This song is one of my favorites to hear her sing... I swear I always get choked up when I hear it.
ReplyDeleteThanks you all so much ... Maria, Angela and Nancy. I find collage is addictive, once I start I hate to quit. Be prepared there may be more coming. *grin.
ReplyDeleteBest to call something done with this much panache "mixed media". Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI agree with Celeste. This cute painting is a mixed media one.
ReplyDeleteI myself tried my hands on acrylic and mixed media paintings to create whimsical girls and queens.
