I purchased several antique architectural plates from an antique shop years ago and rediscovered them recently. Perfect for this challenge. Each window had 12 panes and I started cutting them out very carefully but alas the strips dividing each pane started getting cut out as well! The painting of the sunset is from a circa 1943 magazine ad. I am sorry I did not note the name of the artist before I glued it behind the plate. The blue bird is from a thrift store find - an unused memory journal.
Lovely stuff!
ReplyDeleteVery intriguing, CC, really like the effect of the architectural plate with "outside" color!
ReplyDeletebeautiful! I love the combination of elements here, stark architecture, colorful background and the bird!
