Shown are two of my mixed media pieces. The first one is of a Pitcher plant, I wanted to replicate the veins in the plant so I drew the veins in oil pastel and when I painted over it with ink the oil pastel resisted the ink and stood out. The next piece I drew first in soft pastel but I wanted to add more texture and dimension so I added pieces of fabric like felt and tissue paper that had been covered in glue to make it a soft plastic material, then stitched over that with a sewing machine. I really enjoy using a colourful palette and being experimental with colours.
