Steampunk "Spells"


I was so excited when Graphics 45 brought out a new line of papers, the "Steampunk Spells Collection" combining two of my favorite subjects Halloween and Steampunk.  This piece is 6x6 mixed media on canvas, the metal gears are Tim Holtz, old key holes and keys I found at garage sales and flea markets. The wings are from a necklace I found at a dollar store. I love the hunt for the treasures I use in my art :)

    Love it Victoria! I picked up some of the new Graphic 45 papers a few weeks ago, haven't tried anything with them yet. After seeing your beautiful creation, makes me want to get them out! Beautiful Work!
