This is one of my favorite ways to make art--a little painting mixed with paper play. Here's the finished piece--
...my Paper Mosaic Horses
...but I'll start from the beginning, which was deciding on my color palette--
these are the papers that I painted for this project--my color palette
next I started on my background--
this is a 20 x 20 deep sided birch cradle board--my favorite type of surface--paint and a paper mosaic border
next I made my horse templates--
this makes it a lot easier for me when I go to make my actual subject with the papers
a close up view, and another shot of the finished piece--
I don't make many horses, but I think I will now--I love the way this came out. And here's another one that I made in the same manner with a more familiar subject for me--
I love elephants!!
