Creativity is the theme of this assemblage art piece on canvas. With its many flowers and a word tag that reads “creativity (n): the ability to use or explore the imagination to design and express ideas”, I’ve named it Blooming Creativity. I found its center flower at an estate sale – a chandelier embellishment. Its previous owner had made rather extravagant chandeliers and I was lucky to pick up a number of such pieces for my assemblage art work.

Assemblage is all about making a larger art piece from a number of smaller pieces. My assemblage work is on canvas rather than free standing.

Found vintage items include: buttons, trim, and chandelier flower. New items include (but not limited to): floral cabochons, paper roses, cutout heart, gauze fabric, gears, leaves, clock face, metal embellishments, and creativity quote charm. The polymer clay heart embossed with script was fashioned by yours truly. The background has multiple coats and spritzes of paint with a crackle design as well as stenciled modeling paste. The depth of the overall design is 1.50″.

Attached hangers for wall hanging. Although I prefer the no-frame look, this is ready for framing. I occasionally frame an Assemblage Art piece and the end result can be stunning. This piece will also display nicely on an easel.

Dimensions: 10” x 8” x 1.50″

A Hand of Luck

A Hand of Luck

 

Reduced $19.95 was $29.95

I’m reducing several of my original art pieces. They represent an earlier stage of my work and, although they aren’t the same design as I’m now producing, they remain beautiful wall decor.

A Hand of Luck features the Hamsa Hand which is actually a good luck symbol (see below). It’s part of my new Mini Assemblage Art line although this one is on a rectangular piece of thin wood rather than a canvas. This original 3D collage measures 3.625″ x 2.625″ x .50″ and has an attached hanger although it looks great on an easel as well (easel not included). The background has multiple coats (Finnabair’s Art Alchemy metallic line) and spritzes (Lindy’s Stamp Gang) of paint along with dimensional paste for texturing.

Embellishments (found objects) include a metal Hamsa hand, metal gears, metal adornments, and assorted beads.

Dimensions: 3.625″ x 2.625″ x .50″

From the Good Luck Symbols site, I found the following about the Hamsa Hand. I’ve summarized:

The Hamsa Hand has become popular good luck symbol (Jewish) worldwide and is best known for the power to protect the owner from the evil eye and bring happiness to the holder. The holder of the Hamsa expects to be protected from all negative energies. The most common negative energy being envious glares from people wishing you no good. It’s said to symbolize the five books of the Torah: Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers and Deuteronomy.

3D Wall Art Original Collage Assemblage Canvas Art

3D Wall Art Original Collage Assemblage Canvas Art

This assemblage design is on a canvas board which is attached to a larger canvas board. The background of the central canvas board is a combination of stenciled diamond texture and embossing while the background of the larger canvas board is a stenciled texture brick pattern, thus the name of the piece – Diamonds on Brick.

The found objects in this piece are quite numerous including the center pressed metal envelope, bird egg, pop bottle cap, and vintage elements – two vintage brooches, beaded flower, bird, necklace links, beads, and buttons.

You’ll also find a polymer clay flower fashioned by yours truly and an acorn for a touch of the natural. Newer pieces include (but not limited to) bead garland, lock charms, leaves, frog charm, rhinestones, beads, resin cabochons, winged heart, fabric and/or paper flowers, cutout heart, gears, beads, and various beads.

Hangers attached. This piece would also display well on an easel.

Dimensions: 14” x 10” x 1.50″
