Mixed Media-Lost

This is my entry for this weeks Mixed Media Challenge on Just for Fun I had glitter and paint all over the place so it definitely was messy.

I started off by putting glue on a piece of card. Adding sprinkles of different glitters and, when it had dried, I drew trees with a marker pen. Hadn't a clue where to go from there so added a face and ran a bit of silver card through the cuttlebug to cut out a hat. Still lost so added the word lost. Stamped randomly around the edge to finish it off.

    Fab piece love how you incorporated 'Lost' into it seems so right with the face there looking out from the trees. Never thought of using a marker pen over glitter very inspiring. Thank you for joining us at Just for fun XOXO Zoe

    I love the way you 'didn't have a clue where to go' after the glitter. You certainly went the right way as the finished piece is really creative, love it! Sue x

Hi All. Thank you for visiting today and I hope you like what you see here. A fine bright day but colder today so I may fit in a walk later though I had some curtains to make before I do anything else. At Tag Tuesday this week the theme is Diva. I don't always remember to show my tags for there as you need to be a member and and do your own posts on Tag Tuesday's blog. I chose Elizabeth Taylor as my Diva she was so beautiful in films but definitely a Diva in her private life. Art Journal Journey are still drawing me in with the artists inspired theme so here is yet another page for the challenge there.  This was inspired by Damien Hirst though years ago I didn't feel inspired by his work at all when I saw some of it for real at the Liverpool Tate Gallery. We had gone there to see the wonderful Rodin sculpture 'The Kiss' which graced the entrance to the Gallery. Then we strayed into the next part and a whole wall was covered in dots. It didn't look like art to
