CHEERY BLACKBIRD

Another collage/painting finished!! This was great fun. The background is muted lavenders that
created a serene sky which then inspired me to do blocks of printed art papers and fabrics. I then saw the houses and created the dictionary painted roofs. Then I felt I needed white daisies in the foreground so I painted them in. I sat with the piece for a few days and then saw a big blackbird wanting to fly into the piece. I decided to cut out the bird from polka dot fabric. I like the whimsey of the polka dots. Cheery!
