Art with Hearts - another collage


"An understanding heart warms all that are graced with its presence."
 Another collage with a prominent heart, paper mounted on foam core to add elevation.  The piece is on a flat canvas, but I didn't like the flat look, so I built a box from scrap wood and placed that behind the canvas.  I painted the wood to mimic the design on the paper.  I also used metal objects, shiny red brads, a Chinese fortune, and a wooden piece with the words "care more"


Side view - showing you my handi-work with the painted wood behind the canvas.

  1. Nice heart! I like the leaves that you painted to match the paper. Very serene color scheme.
