I hope everyone had a lovely Christmas and that the New Year brings you all good things.
ARTastic has a fantastic new challenge up . My mojo had been seriously lacking, but I enjoyed this challenge and it helped to get the creative juices flowing.
The challenge is .....
We start off with this really delightful street art by Fintan Magee. Aren't these little guys adorable!
This is a free scrap with no set criteria so make of it as you will but don't forget to tell us what inspired you about the painting - the brickwork, the super hero costumes, the little boys, the colours ... whatever you like.
To learn a little more about Fintan Magee, pop over to Artastic and while there check out the DT's inspiration and leave them so love.
The scene of these cute little super hero's reminded me of street art and that is where I have taken my inspiration from. I remembered I had taken a photo of a mural at Bondi Beach and thought it would be perfect for this challenge. That is what I love about challenges, I probably would never have scrapped this otherwise, and now I am happy that I did.
The Earth without Art is just "Eh"
I kept it pretty simple with stamping, water colour, gesso and washi tape.
The little stars were sent to me from my Pen Pal in the UK and are a really pretty mauve IRL
Washi tapes are from Craftqueen & Georgia Heald
Thank you for calling by and for those in Australia , I hope you are staying cool in the heat . Looking forward to seeing lots of layouts this month :)
Love , Peace and Happiness
