Layers and Layers


Layers and layers of work has gone into this piece..... and it is not finished yet.


It started off as a plastered covered cradle board that I added some paint too, and then sanded off some of the paint to make a distressed look.


I then transferred a copy of an picture I took a few years ago.



I painted over top of it, so much that my trees disappeared, so I drew/painted them in again. I added some more colour that became too much colour (but I didn't take a picture at that stage)
So I painted over the layer, and repainted some trees.



And this is where I am at now.... not finished, and again unsure where to go from here. I will wait to see what it tells me.
