At the moment I have a slight obsession with this gorgeous indigo paper (bought from the Vintage Paper Co) and pebbles!
This is my loose interpretation of a collection of pebbles.

I begin by painting and texturing the paper (watercolour) before cutting out each heart shape individually, outlined in white ink. The branches came from a piece of acrylic painted paper from a previous project. It's a similar process with the viridian stones of painting the paper, outlining them in white ink and cutting out before arranging and gluing them onto the indigo paper.

My inspiration comes from a Coloricombo challenge on Instagram, playing with colours outside of my usual palette choice. Although here I've gone more for my usual choice of colours, blues and greens with a touch of grey to contrast.

I don't think I've ever grown out of cutting and sticking as a child!! :)

Full description

This one of a kind paper collage is part of a pebbles collection I am currently working on.

It is a simple mixed media piece exploring an abstract tree shape with paper hearts instead of leaves, growing out of a heap of stones.

I began by overpainting some of the background indigo paper with white creating a loose border before adding the collage items on top. Flowing branches of an unidentifiable tree, appropriately adorned with hearts and growing out of vibrant viridian stones.

The border is highlighted in bronze ink.

This affordable piece of artwork measures 19 x 13cm (background, with the branch extending another 1.5 cm to the side) and comes unframed.

Perfect to decorate your wall, or give as a gift for someone special.

It comes in a cello bag for protection, and will be posted securely wrapped with card and recycled packaging for protection. If you can reuse the bag and packaging please do :)
