Mixed Media Collage: "Dancing"

Valentine's Day is around the corner, and I couldn't let it pass by without creating a piece of art to honor this day of love. 

I took a slightly different approach with another mixed media collage, and it speaks of Valentine's Day only through the use of pink.

"Dancing"

I have wanted to use this beautiful 

ballerina photo and the

sweet vintage sheet music

 for a long while...

I delicately colored her dress

to match the green in the Basic Grey

paper scrap...

I also used a piece of the lovely pink 

vintage velvet ribbon that I showed you in a 

recent post,

along with a mother of pearl belt buckle...

This time I made use of one of my long 

forgotten rubber art stamps,

and cut out each word separately.

It felt good to use this one again!

I shaded her skin ever so slightly...

The best part about these pieces is that there is no requirement

to be perfect with your painting.

And that is certainly a perk for me!!
