I've been wanting to start a series based on the antique mannikin I have, that I think is SO neat, so, here's my first piece of my new series:
The background of clouds and birds is painted with acrylics; then, I painted the mannikin on some recycled book pages and collaged her in.
Hope you like it!

Ohhhhhh, this is FABULOUS, Stephanie! LOVE IT!
I adore this Stephanie - it's so spiritual and beautiful! x
This is gorgeous and spot on for the theme - imagination taking flight on wings of fancy! Your paintings are all incredible.
This is so cool, Stephanie! It is so much fun doing these challenges because they make you creep out of your comfort zone. Love the first in your new series.

Thanks guys, that's what I love about these challenges too! It's so easy to get "stuck" in your comfort zone- I still love doing my flowers, but I've been wanting to start this for a while, and as far as I'm concerned, I have IA to thank for it!
what a cool "imaginative" outside the box piece. isn't it funny...all the wonderful collage work done by IA artists is inspiring me to start working on collages. something i've never done before. IA Rocks!
I Love this piece. It reminds me of a quote:
"What do I need legs for, when I have wings to fly?"
Of course Frida said this...who else?
xox, Lisa
Lisa,
I might NEED to use that quote in another piece; LOVE it!
This is beautiful Stephanie, SO gorgeous! I love how you created the manikin in a separate technique!
