Cozy Nest

 


I created this mixed media collage piece at a Helga Flower workshop. She is a very successful artist who resides in Michigan and has a snowbird home in Martin County. Her specialty is to create nest paintings which are each unique and never able to be duplicated. This one was started by painting a large nest shape and then flinging different colors of paint to create the background. By scraping with a pallette knife I was able to achieve the appearance of twigs. To enhance this I added collage material to the nest, giving it texture and interest. The last step is to add the eggs.
