Done - Final Layer!

I kinda lost track of how many layers. Let's see what all I used: Acrylic paint, water soluble oil pastels, stencils, ocean jasper stones, turquoise stones, charcoal pencil, ink, cheese cloth and fibers. Here you go, Mom!

Here's some close-ups:

Fourth Layer

When in doubt, paint a flower. I think my stems got a little wonky tho. Still needs more layers!

Third Layer

This is the third layer. Don't quite know where I'm going with it yet but I know it needs lots more layers!

Second Layer

This is the second layer in the painting for my mom. I did a gel transfer of one of her favorite Scriptures and I stenciled using an old plastic doily that had belonged to her mom. Not liking the transfer so I might remove it.

First Layer

This painting will go to my mom for her new place. It will be the first time she has ever lived alone so I wanted to make something special just for her. Her favorite color is blue so I started the first layer with that. It is a 36x36 canvas, a nice above the sofa size.
