Scarlet Macaw repainted

10x10 torn paper collage on canvas plus an added acrylics on the background, done last month. I had done this collage previously but the bg was too busy. Adding blue and green acrylic paint kept the color and value there while eliminating confusion. COPYRIGHT 2024 Kay Smith

Another Confetti Cactus

Another Confetti Cactus 8x5.5 mixed media using acrylics and ink in new junk journal from the 1940s I created last month. This is the third fun yet funky decorated cactus I have done. The first one has gone to its new home so still have the second and this one. No two are alike. COPYRIGHT 2024 Kay Smith
