My wire Cross Star is an original handmade mixed media artwork. . The star is sculptured from silver coloured wire, with gold & bronze coloured wire wrapped around for extra decoration & shine. Using silver & gold thread, I’ve hand stitched a star to emphasize the Triangle Star. For the wording behind the star, I’ve typed the word star, repeating it by using all the different computer fonts beginning with s, just to add a different visual dimension. Over this is a layer of white tissue paper with bronze splashes to add a bit of shimmer & to soften the wording. This sits on grey with gold speckled tissue paper, which is mounted on brown wrapping paper textured with white gouache & acrylic paint & white watercolour paper. Some of the paper’s edges have been torn to emphasize the paper texture. To show off the wire, I’ve kept the background to white and neutral tones. It also means my artwork will fit perfectly into any home. It can be hung on the wall or can sit on a shelf. I’ve also made a Cross Star artwork. Buy as a pair for £40 or individually for £25.
