Here in Oklahoma, we’re experiencing the hottest part of the summer with “real feel” temps hovering around 110 degrees. That means I’m spending even less time running around during the day and instead staying in – enjoying the comfort and coolness of my art studio.

My smaller art section is growing as I have several new pieces ready for posting. This is the first – The Blue Raven – and I love the mixture of blue and bronze with a touch of silver.

My Mini Art line is now referred to as Small Art. Most mini art is… well, mini. And a 4″ x 4″ canvas doesn’t really qualify as such. So, I’m slowly changing all the descriptions from mini to small.

And now for those official words describing The Blue Raven in detail…

Titled The Blue Raven, this little piece of steampunk is one of my favorite smaller pieces to date. It’s an original 3D collage measuring 4″ x 4″ x 1.5″. The colors draw me in with a mixture of medium blues and gray accentuated by bronze and a deep silver with spritzes of highlighting color and metallic wax. The background is textured with dimensional paste. Found objects used to form this design include a vintage belt piece, an old imitation coin, gears, raven, cabochons, shield, word tag, and leaves.

For hanging, I prefer using the canvas frame to do so. Blue Raven can be framed although I don’t believe this type of works needs framing. It also displays nicely on an easel.
