Mixed Media - Own Your Dreams

Sometimes I just really want to make "drama". The first time I attempted this color scheme, I failed with the background being too light...with a purplish tint. Not really what I wanted. I love extreme contrasts and gravitate towards that style in art more so than anything else (even though I do love browns and golds).

I went after my own inspiration with this color scheme. I didn't specifically have "plum" in my stash, but I did have poppy red.

Mixed Media Anchor

 Hello there!! Today I would like to share with you an altered anchor I made to decorate my kitchen for the summer. Making summer pieces is hard for me cause I just don't feel like I always get the colors right. This piece is very light and I usually work with high contrast pieces as well. But...it's still pretty to me anyway!!!
