Fertile Ground


I decided to depart from my usual mode of working on a double page spread inside my art journal for this Quote and image.  After painting with acrylics and adding fabric, I mounted the smaller canvas board onto a larger framed canvas which I painted also with acrylics.  Even though I was tempted to apply store bought lettering, I chose to paint the letters on to keep this piece more personal, so it's not perfect. Even though you can not see it, I painted the edges that wrap around all sides of the canvas so it looks cool hanging on the wall = )
