Created for a swap and also fits this week's Mixed Media Monday theme "Something New". New because it is part of a collaborative paper bag book swap, which is something I haven't made before, and it also include some of my new collage images.
The background was created using Sticky Fingers sprays in Poppy & Buttercup, plus some Sticky Fingers Lustre Spray in Aubergine. On top of this, I stamped a Hero Arts Flower in StazOn Royal Purple, the Tim Holtz corner in Versafine black, and added also some ink splatters / dots also in black. The collage images were then added and the whole piece edged with Black soot Distress Ink.

That background really makes the beautiful bird pop right out of the page, lovely piece!
Congratulations, Rachel - I have chosen this amazing piece as the Art of the Week on Mixed Media Monday this week! Diane
I love this one. It's funny because i just posted a drawing called 'Blackbirds'. But my birds are not so friendly though.
I like your use of colours.
Your Art is so beautiful. I fell on your blog by just going to the next blog, after looking at the first one. I am glad I did. You are very talented. I love the Bird you did. Lvoe the colors. I am going 2 look at your blog some more. Hugs, Francine
My goodness! I have just been enjoying your wonderful blog, Rachel, and I spied this piece which has blown me away. The bird, glowing in his electric blue colours, stands out so much the picture looks almost three dimensional. This is truly a special artwork.
The colors are bright and vibrant. I also like the textures. Beautiful and gorgeous work.
