PAINT -PAPER-EGGS OH MY!

 “These eggs are broken. Cracked."

"Yes, ma'am. That happens sometimes."

"Does it?"

"Yes, it's the unfortunate part of being an egg.” 

― Peter Hedges, What's Eating Gilbert Grape

 

Time to gather those eggs!

My inspiration for my eggs came from my love of color and a REALLY Snow white & ICY Blue winter!  I also really get into dying eggs,more so than my kids I think, I boil 6-8 dozen for us just to dye for fun....no we can never eat all those but that's not the point. :)

So this year I have applied my painting technique to paper mache' eggs...NO WAY am I blowing out eggs...though this could be applied to real eggs.

                                                      Gesso covered first

Then paint and seal. And gotta' add a few verses and quotes on some!

Set out, Share and ENJOY!

I love aqua/ turquoise color. Along with this yummy warm orange. So why not together? I'm loving it what can I say.  At the foundation of this mixed media piece you'll find torn paper defining "Be" and "Beautiful" as a reminder at the core. I then built the remaining layers of acrylic color and texture. Much like the way people have many layers and textures. Careful to keep the s colors and message to " Be You" and Beautiful" clear.
Hope you find this piece  helps you too to " Be You (tiful)".
