I found this quote in a book that Oprah wrote, "The Path Made Clear: Discovering Your Life's Direction and Purpose." It includes quotes from many famous people she's interviewed. R eading this book helped me crystalize that my path is to bring Positivity to the world through my art. Mixed Media. 16 x 20 x .75" inches on birch wood cradle board. The sky, flowers and grass are 3D. Their texture was created with Gel Medium (like a glue) and light molding paste then painted with acrylic using a pallet knife. The letters, SOAR, were Photoshopped using pictures of birds' wings. For the bird, I started with a picture of a hawk and collaged flowers, flower petals and a humming bird onto it. The words were all individually stamped, letter by letter onto papers I created with a gelli plate (a reusable, durable printing plate that allows you to mono-print without a press). You can read about how I make gelli papers in my blog. Show more
