1. DT Our Creative Corner Flaming June

Hi friends,

I'm very proud and happy to be a part of this very creative DT. I have been creating for many years now, always in search for new techniques and yet unexplored territory in craftland.


Firebird


The topic is rich orange tones as main colour - for me a feeling the need to create anything with  fire...
I originally had this long running idea of mixing Acryl Painting and Steampunk, because that style is my new passion. For the background I used many nature stencils (sun rays, branches, spiderweb), crackle paint and distress paints for an old grungy look.




Have a great weekend and thank you for taking the time to stop in.

 
Happy crafting

  1. What a stunning way to start your journey at OCC Kerstin! Your piece of art has so much depth and I love that the longer you look, the more you see in the background - it's right up my street! Lot's of steampunk elements and that wonderful splash of orange works so well. I look forward to working with you at OCC.

  3. Da komm ich doch genau rechtzeitig aus dem Kurzurlaub zurück um deinen schönen Feuervogel gebührend würdigen zu können, liebe Kerstin!

    Deine Interpretation des Themas finde ich außergewöhnlich gelungen und spannend! Die Dynamik in deinem Bild ist einfach nur genial und das Orange "brennt" sich regelrecht in die Augen! Perfekt!

    Recht liebe Grüße und hoffentlich geht es dir schon etwas besser!
