Garden of Fortune
click to enlarge
This garden is full of fortune. Unlock the mystery and the fortune is yours.
I finished this piece last year after months of layers and photo transfers from sculptures I saw at the beautiful outdoor museum, outside of Dusseldorf, called Insel Hombroich in Germany. (if you click, scroll down one post to see photos) I have been there now twice and each time it amazes me. This piece I did was sort of an out pouring tribute to this special place.
Good fortune is yours at Illustration Friday.
***update*** a few people asked for a print of this piece so if you are interested, you can get one here at the shop in two sizes.

I wish I could eat this. It looks tasty, all colors that I find so hard to draw and make with paint.
especially the purple and the bird and the yellow and the others bird and the green circles and so on
Hi Susan! This is a gorgeous piece, love the soft colours and the collage-y effect with the photo transfers. Wishing you lots of good fortune for the spring.

So full of love and life. I adore the birds, buddha and splendid colors. Nice piece!
This is so lovely. Love the muted colors. An intersting process you used that I've never tried.

This is beautiful, S. Layers of subtle secrets and delights. This, I can tell, must be seen in person. Looking forward to seeing your work together on your website!
