Well, it was a mirror at one time but I painted gesso over it and collaged over it with these darling little girls. As I write this post it is exactly 9 degrees here in Pennsylvania and I'm trying to keep a positive attitude and not cuss at the weatherman when he comes on the TV, so I'm thinking of spring. I'm dreaming of flowers and the April showers and that's my inspiration for this collage assemblage......"Showers of April Flowers"! The frame was originally gold so I painted over it here and there with acrylic leaf green and robin egg blue then when it was dry I dry brushed over with Lumiere gold paint. I like the effect, it reminds me of a copper patina.I bought white leaves and painted them with Twinkling H2Os then tipped them with glue and sprinked with this great spring green glitter. This assemblage is available in the Honey Girl Studio Shop.
This is how it started out after I painted the frame I then gessoed the mirror, waited until it dried and then collaged over it with text.
