A Bird in Harmony with Nature

Hello and Welcome Ina here to share with you what I made with

 the most gorgeous March Mood Board for

Art and Soul Studio.
The Mood Board called for leaves or feathers
so on a walk back from my mailbox (it's a bit of a walk)
 I collected a few bits of bark and leaves
with some amazing colours and markings
to add to my creation. Also found a few feathers
left behind by some birds.
Here is my 8" x  8" finished canvas.

and the Mood Board

I started by adding gesso to my canvas and then
 inking Art Alchemy Metallic Paints in
Frozen Berries and Romance Pink with
strokes of white .

Adding some interest with some inked rings

using the lid of one of my sprays

then texture with Tim Holtz Stone Stencil

with DecoArt Crackle Paint.

Now the inky fun part begins by going outside

and spraying my leaves, bark and birdcage with

Dylusions Funky Fuchia Spray, Tim Holtz Antique Bronze

Spray Stain and Lindy's Witches Potion Purple Spray.

I did this on the side of an old trailer in our garage.

Now to decide where to add my elements.

Straw bits were sprayed with the colours above

and I added Finnabair Art Stones.

Here are a few close ups -

That beautiful blue shimmer is from

Lindy's Witches Potion Purple Spray

Added a few feathers I found in our yard. 

And to finish - a photo of the bird cage.
