For the Birds

Spent the day working on this collage...using an old window

frame, a canvas, some old buttons, some beaded board,.....

here's the buttons...I bought a whole sack of them

last year at Round Top Antique Fair out in Texas...

I keep a whole stash of salvaged materials: tin ceiling

beaded board, scrap wood, hinges, door plates, etc....

I just took these yesterday, and decided to incorporate

them in the collage today...no moss grew on these digital

files!

The finished piece is large, 30 x 40. The window

frame is attached to the canvas, which is painted

here and there with a taupe color. I glued the buttons

on last, and I will seal the whole thing tomorrow.

I worked on it outside all afternoon..it was a perfect

day. Welcome Spring!!!
