THE WEEPING TREE ~ PICTURE THIS CHALLENGE

Another layout to share, yep I have been busy ! I came across this challenge site via Lizzy Hill , thanks Lizzy. The challenge site is PICTURE THIS and the challenge is to use paint, one photo and a stencil. So my layout of the Weeping Tree ticks the boxes

The Weeping Tree

I took this photo of the Weeping Tree by Imre Varga at the Raoul Wallenburg Memorial Park Budaphest. Names of Hungarian Jews killed during the Holocaust are engraved on each leaf.

I have used a serviette I brought whilst in Budapest by the Artist Klimt. I used it on the layout as the Nazi's stole his painting of the Woman in Gold during the war. The flair of the Dove is my wish that one day there will be peace in the world. (Sadly humans never seem to learn )

I have added gold paint here and there on my layout. My whole design was inspired by Klimt .

As well as using a stencil and texture paste for leaves, I have also coloured and used some chippy leaves. I think you may have given me these Lizzy ? so thank you.

I really didn't know how I was going to do this beautiful sculptor justice, but I was happy with the outcome. The layout is much more vibrant and golden IRL

Thanks so much for calling by
Love, Peace and Happiness
