Dream



9" X 12" on stretched canvas



Mixed media collage painting



Created using decorative papers, oil pastels,



acrylic, metallic, & 3D paints.
Lovely touchable texture!



I also used glow in the dark paint on certain areas for a nice surprise!



Don't forget to Dream! :)

    Thanks so much creative ladies!

    glorv1- I buy my 3D paints at Michael's. You can probably get them at most artsy stores.

    Karen- Yay! You're finally a blogger too. I'll come and visit right away!

    Hey Lisa, found your blog via Michelle of Enchanted Inspirations. Love this piece, the tree and the little houses and of course the word Dream, something we all need to do once in a while and then see what turns into reality :-)

    Hello Lisa...

    I had been tagged by DEEZDEN awhile back to write about 5 things I do to keep my mind healthy and my life balanced. I had to choose 5 people in turn. You are one of them :)
    enjoy...

    check out my blog to see what it's about...

    by the way this painting of yours is beeeeeautiful!!!!
    wow.. you're good!

    What a beautiful painting--you make such incredibly lovely stuff!

    I wasn't sure if you wanted to have your giveaway show up on etsygiveaways or not from the comment you left on my blog--I would have added it myself already but I don't know some of the key info that I'd need in order to add it (namely the prize value and a non-blogspot image link). If you don't want to submit it I'm not trying to pressure you to do so--i just didn't want you to miss out on it if you did want it listed there :) If you do want it listed, you can provide the info via our submissions form on the blog (it's in the upper left corner)--you don't need to worry about telling me one way or the other :)

    Take care, and keep up the beautiful work--this will definitely be a new common spot for me to visit on the blogosphere :)

    I would LOVE to paint in the same room as you. It would be so inspiring, as each of your pieces seems to have some special little surprise. I keep passing on the 3D paints, but after seeing them in your work I'll have to pick up a few! Are they difficult to apply and control?

  42. Lisa Lectura CreationsJanuary 19, 2009 at 10:22 AM

    Thanks to everyone for all your comments! I really appreciate every single one of them!

    Jolie- You're a sweetie! I've work with a few different types of 3D paints. The ones in the bottle applicators are the easiest for me to use. Have fun!

    Creative Blessings,
    Lisa :)
