"Tree Swallow" by
Jenny & Atlanta Carrera |
Inspired by artist, Elizabeth Singletary (Jenny's art teacher), Jenny & I have used her collage style art techniques (that Jenny learned in class) to create our very own "Tree Swallow" on a 16 x 20 canvas. Jenny did the collage for the Tree Swallow from an outline which I sketched. She also did the collage of the brown tree branch, part of the sky and sun, and some of the leaves. I assembled the flowers from petals she cut for me. I then finished the background, the black tree branches, and added the bird's nest. While Jenny is inspired by Ms. Singletary, I am inspired by Jenny's enthusiasm, excitement, and willingness to learn!
