out of the nest~

since my daughter has moved out, i have been wanting to make her

something symbolizing her leaving the nest and using the words "wings to fly"

i think that this artwork captures it.....

and for beth who asked how i do this, i take a piece of canvas prepared with gesso, paint with lumiere paint, let dry, paint a few times with beeswax, lay down the artwork, covered a few more times with beeswax, embellish , i will be adding a brass butterfly to her outstretched hand and cover with more beeswax..and voila'

you have a piece of art....
