Heart, hearts, hearts!

All you need is love...
Hearts, hearts, hearts!

This is my heart ginkgo mixed media- the second in the series.
Made of pressed and preserved leaves, watercolor, quality papers, ribbon, and beads.

Enjoy!



This work is currently owned and not for sale.  I am happy to make custom leaf pieces though :)

Star Ginkgo Mixed Media

Starry starry night...
This is the first of three small ginkgo mixed media pieces I created.  Stars are cut out a pressed and preserved leaf.  The background includes watercolor, ribbons, papers, and beads.  The entire piece is sealed to prolong its life.  


These pieces belong to my ginkgo loving mother, but I hope to find time to make some to sell again soon.  Any ideas for new gingko art?  I had a leaf that was shaped like butterfly wings but I lost it...

Leaf Watercolor

First fall leaf!

The first yellow fall leaf landed in some magenta mums... it made the perfect photograph and turned into a beautiful watercolor.  Accents are made with seed beads.

This piece is for sale in Avon, CT at A Cool Chick Place... leave a comment!

Geisha Mixed Media

Paper Cranes and Geishas...

A follow up to my Indian bride, this is my Geisha letting her hair down.  This mixed media includes watercolor, acrylic, ink, sheer and satin ribbon, seed beads, origami crane, and handmade papers.






































Enjoy her!  She is for sale at The Cool Chick Place in Avon, CT
