Orphan Intro

Orphan is a very unique creation that I came up with after pulling an Archetype card. I had no idea this was going to happen as once I began to put it together.  Things just started making so much sense as I went along the process. 

This project is a hunter- gatherer type of painting.  Go on a little hunt in your art/craft room and around the house.  Gather up all the little findings and put them in a container of sorts.  I love unique bowls or cups.  When my mother in law passed away a couple of years ago, hubby and I went to her house to join his sisters.  We were packing up stuff in boxes and came across this awesome bowl.  Neither of the sisters wanted it so I was gifted this beautiful brass hammered bowl.  It now sits in my art/craft room so I can have it ready at all times to put all my little findings in it when I am in that hunter-gatherer mode.  You never know what the little pieces can transform your art piece into!  It can be quite magical!!!

I created these different color schemes in Photoshop using Topaz plug in.  You can read my musings post HERE.  I also created a quick video on YOUTUBE to show you how cool this plug in is.  To make the color swatches below the image, I used DROP app on my iPad. They have recently updated this app and its even better.  I did pay for the app, but its a small fee for such a great idea and fast way to create the swatches.
