"POTPOURRI," 11016, mixed media collage © Carol Nelson Fine Art
This painting is a collection of found objects, art papers, leather, aluminum, brads, nails, and acrylic paints. These collages are a lot of fun to make and are one of the most popular things I teach artists about in my workshops.
I always encourage artists to use a limited palette because with so many different texture materials, having all the colors closely coordinated has a unifying effect on the final piece.

Despite a limited palette the range of tones is very pleasing. Textures too.
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed this piece. Love the way you used all the various textures and the long format, very nice Carol.
