I felt it needed something in the top corner and I was toying with the idea of a bird but I thought I would try this stamp.
I didn't like it so I covered it up with a torn piece of scrapbook paper.
I applied a few layers of paint and some stamping and then added the bird.
I am a little disappointed in it but I am too scared of over working it so I think it will have to do. Perhaps I will keep starring at it a little longer and then decide.
I promise that the next time you see this piece it will be finished.
Thanks for visiting. x
I think it looks good as it is now with the bird! Valerie

Wow! I love this piece. She is such a whimsical girl--you've caught a bit of magic in this, my talented friend.
ReplyDeleteYou are right to leave the bird a while and not risk over working it, a trait I often suffer. Your piece is looking beautiful and I enjoy your updates on its progress.
ReplyDeleteShe's coming along beautifully. Glad you posted her again.
ReplyDeleteI love your pensive girls with their lovely dresses, and yes, the bird completes the picture well.
ReplyDeleteThese are gorgious..love the colour and pattern...but also the expression on the faces.
ReplyDeleteI think the bird does it!!! Really. And the girl is so precious. It all goes together great.
ReplyDeleteNo danger of boring THIS regular visitor, that's for sure!! I adore works in progress as it's so fascinating to see the process by which a piece takes shape, and the ideas and thought processes that go on. I think this is a gorgeous painting and I do love the little bird! It's so great, and I don't think you need have any doubts about it.
ReplyDeleteThanks for your visit and your lovely comment - glad you like my alcohol ink backgrounds. I don't usually do that much in one stretch and I certainly did feel a bit woozy when I stopped lol!! Shoshi got hiiiiigh! In future I shall sit near the balcony door (if it's not too cold!) and I won't do so many at once!

This is so wonderful! The bird is awesome just as it is. I love the girl. The painting is awesome. You inspire me.

ReplyDeleteThe bird looks amazing, and I have been enjoying the work in progress... it is great to see it develop... it is never boring watching someone's creative process...xx
ReplyDeleteIt's looking great and I really love that little bird!
ReplyDeleteI agree, sometimes the best thing is to turn it over and not look at it for a while. From my perspective it is a charming painting but you will be the person to finally decide.
ReplyDeleteThat bird IS amazing!! I liked the key hole too because it gave her depth bring her to the forefront. I hope to see the full piece with the bird next time... either way it's so beautiful! Good job! Love it!
