Lamb of God

I may be finished with this 8x10 acrylic and collage piece. I used an image of the assumption to collage in the background. On too of that I glued pattern paper to give it texture and painted a lamb on top of that.

Lilies of the valley

Finished a piece that will be auctioned off in February. I used scrapbook paper, pattern paper, and holy cards to collage in the background. I created a butterfly stencil and dry brushed black butterflies, and finished by painting lilies of the valley in the foreground.

New beginnings

Completed my first painting since having my son three months ago. Calling this piece "New Beginning" ... 2013 has been a transition period for me. The butterfly represents renewal. I am continuing with collage elements that reflect Catholicism. This past year has been teaching me to rely on God and I am incorporating this aspect of my life in the works.
