Mixed media textured background

art Pieces challenge

This is what i have been working on as i decided to do what i enjoy most which is making backgrounds. I adore texture and colour and this one has my favourite colours in. I will likely cut this up later and use for atc's or other projects but It was made with the feeling of spring and newness in the air and so its a piece based on my feelings at the time of making it.
I would like to submit this one for the 'colourful challenge' on art pieces this week

Hi June! I just happened to check my blog before I was off to bed and saw your lovely post and popped in over here for a visit! What a lovely blog! Now, backgrounds are my biggest problem so I am very impressed that they are your favorite thing to do and this one is gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous! If I could make them like you I would like them much more than I do! I make my main pieces in a short time, well easier time, but I get so hung up on what to put them on. Rub off on me and maybe I will catch some of your magic!

I'm off to explore some more here! Thank you for your kind words!

Well, I'm game if you are. You make two similar backgrounds and I'll add two similar foregrounds and you keep one and I keep one! Anything goes! email me at marsha@tumblefishstudio.com if you're interested! I've never collaborated before - it could be fun!
