The background of the picture on the left was done by layering different shades of green. I then layered red and white dots. I put the tree in the middle with presents around to represent my favorite holiday! I like how you have to look close to see the tree yet it is obvious at the same time. The one thing I would change is to fill in the green in the background a little more.
The picture on the right the background is a layering of blues and reds with some white paper showing to give it depth with the dark and light contrast. The center is a grey leaf that is in strict contrast with the background. I love the patchwork quality of the background and the aloneness of the single leaf. I would only change adding a little more depth with the bckground by adding a little more bleu on the lower left corner.
I really enjoy the creativity of mixed media!
