Beach as Inspiration for Arty Girlz Challenge~Vintage
I returned from our vacation with so many images running though my head. I was so happy to find time in my studio this week to put those thoughts on canvas.
This piece was inspired by our week at the beach and vintage sand pails. I love those old pails with their vibrant colors mingled with years of rust.
This is my first entry in the Arty Girlz Challenge and I can't think of a more perfect topic for me !!
This collage is currently available in my Etsy shop.
