and a woman riding on a horse for Audrey Breed, who is a Japan-lover:
And for Manon Wisser I added acrylics, pastels and charcoal. I need to show you the finished piece also, which turned out amazing
Here is the finished version:
Here is Malissa Priebe's piece:
Malissa prepared a white square for each participant to paint and I found a photo of an albino child from Asia that was so adorable and painted it.
The following piece is Sandra Sherman's piece that is going back to Australia, as soon as I finished it completely. I'm not quite sure, maybe you have a suggestion for me how to complete it? To the left you see the piece how it arrived to me. I added the greens and animals and flowers:
This is my start, that I sent off to Australia in May. I added metallic colored acrylics to a silk dupion square and sketched the woman on top.
And this is what came back to me after it had travelled from Germany to Australia, different states in the US and Canada and over the big water to the UK and back home:
I absolutely love this piece and have to thank all you participants for working on my start! You are amazing!!!
I've been on a little holiday with my family in Copenhagen, where we were at an exhibition about Frida Kahlo, with some of her wonderful artwork. We stayed at the museum for more than three hours, which is a lot for a nine year old and a teenage boy!!! I love my family for giving me that time and I enjoyed it so much I wanted to go back the next day :D but we didn't, we visited an underwater world with all kinds of fish and other creatures which was amazing especially for my children!
Thank you for visiting my blog! Have a wonderful weekend everyone!

ReplyDeleteI am a bit behind on looking at ppf posts. These shared works are stunning. There is a magic that occurs in collaborative art works. The piece takes a life of its own owning to the creativity of all involved. I enjoyed seeing what you have created.
