Nature...

I watched this great youtube video from Sandra van der Geest called Leap of Faith It was all magazine cut outs it was just such fun, I was so inspired, so I had to have a go. 

I gathered lots of magazines and started cutting all these faces. I found some great bat images in a gardening magazine so used that for wings. Same magazine for my moth handbag. I had lots of fun cutting, sticking and pasting bits and pieces. I had trouble finding some legs till I found this great picture of a bonsai tree so that kind of told me what background to paint and ended up being my theme then for the whole piece. 


I am going to enter this at the following.

Have a great day

    I love it. And the trees are fantastic. I was waiting to read that you cut those out too, LOL. Wish I could draw trees like that. May have to give this a go :)

    Very cool! Your magazine collage came together nicely. I like the bonsai trunk as the legs. Keeps her firmly planted!

    Wait a minute! Nature totally judges. She judges and finds us lacking and in response says, "Here! Have some pollen." Ahhh-choo!

    I love your crazy pieced together lady with her moth handbag. Just so fun!
