5x7 'HAPPY ART' Canvas

I love playing with mixed media art.... ahhhh my happy place!
This is a 5x7 canvas. I used various colors of acrylic paints to cover the canvas and used Webster's Pages' collection 'Ladies & Gents and Trendsetter for the background, word cut-outs and to paper piece the prima doll. The flowers are from the thrift store that I gesso'd first before gluing down.

I talk about the process more on my video: see below.
Thanks for stopping by!
