I'm sure I am not alone when I say I wish I had more time for daydreaming. Sitting on the curb in the summer dreaming up adventures, lounging in the tub, or staring at the clouds and seeing fun shapes seems like a luxury out of my reach. As I get older, it seems some of the time to just "percolate" evaporates. But not for Phoebe, my latest creation.
She began in a relatively elaborate setting-- compared to her other buds in the Serendipity series. I designed a wrought iron chair in front of a wallpapered wall---perhaps too ambitious a feat in paint and paper. But when color inspiration struck and I wanted her her chair to be blue, my layering was suddenly all wrong. Joyfully, mixed media is a medium that allows for major renovations with creativity and a dash of daring.
Phoebe has finally emerged----sitting pretty in her chair with giant bun feet. She is quite adored by all of her bird friends as she daydreams the time away........
