The background was painted with gesso, and then I stamped into the wet gesso with a clock stamp. I coloured the background with Gelatos. The flowers and leaves, representing the 4 seasons were drawn or stamped and then painted; the rose is an image transfer with mod-podge.
I am also linking to Mix it Monthly, flowers.

And the sunrise from this morning:
Have a great day you all, take care,
and thanks a lot for coming by!
and thanks a lot for coming by!
Marvelous interpretation of the theme today matching the verse you used. All of the flowers I love!
ReplyDeleteIt must have been a bright day as your photos really set off the greens and the blue sky. You are getting up and I am just going to bed. Enjoy Thursday!
Hugs,

Ooh! she's a real beauty and seeing the Ecclesiastes quote I can feel a journal page coming on! Great photos, I love that stepped roof! Chrisx
ReplyDeleteI love them, too, we have a lot like that round here.

What an interesting way to portray that quote. She came out great! More beautiful photos today too!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great atmospheric "seasons" face, she looks full of hope.
ReplyDeleteAnd your sunrise looks full of hope too, for the day.
Yes, the sunrise is always a sign of hope.
DeleteAbsolutely gorgeous 4 seasons lady!
ReplyDeleteWow she is a beauty! Gorgeous flowers around her as well. The sunrise is gorgeous, you are lucky you can see them. Here the sun comes up over houses, but it shines into my craft room where I'm sitting which is nice :) Hugs, Shirleyxx
ReplyDeleteLove that verse and the song that always come to mind too!
ReplyDeleteYour lovely lady of the seasons turned out beautifully.
Your mixed media flowers would also work for Conny's Mix it Monthly challenge!
Lovely sunrise on a new and lovely day!

Thanks for the tip!
DeleteYour floral face is very beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThose wee trees are quite intriguing.
The sunlit sky is glorious.
Have a great Friday :D
Yet another beautiful face Valerie and I think this is my favourite yet. So pretty yet very slightly quirky - just love it!
ReplyDeleteLove your gorgeous owl below too.

I love the efforts you put into your backgrounds and love hearing about your techniques. This is another beautiful face and gorgeous roses.
ReplyDeleteHugs,
Teresa
Thanks, love your new cat, what a beauty!
DeleteHier kann ich nur staunen, egal ob das Portrait, die Bilder, die Blumen,
ReplyDeletealles ist faszinierend.
Auch dein neues Outfit ;-) - Profilbild, ist erstklassig, das passt perfekt.
Ich wünsche dir ein wunderschönes We.

gorgeous! What an amazing face, I love how you have incorporated the clock, I did not spot it at first, so clever! Thanks for linking up to Show Your Face and for the shout out too! Kx
ReplyDeleteI always thought it was 'gather ye nuts while you may' but maybe I have been watching the squirrels in my garden too long getting ready for winter. Lovely summery work of art. Happy PPF
ReplyDeleteToo funny! I love watching squirrels, too. There is a song about 'Here we go gathering nuts in May...'
DeleteLovely creation Valerie and your walking pics are always inspiring. You have such beauty around your area. Have a nice Friday.cm
ReplyDeleteThe first thing I noticed when I came back online was your new icon you leave with your comments. It's beautiful and so, so different from the previous one.
ReplyDeleteI did a spread in my Time AB that showed the song by the Byrds on one page and the bible verse on the other page. I must confess that mine isn't nearly as colorful, nor does it represent the seasons so well as yours. You turned this into a genuine beauty.
Your photo of a stream makes it look like you are standing in the middle of it. It is a great shot, as is the sunrise!
Love the words you added to your beautiful lady today.
ReplyDeleteYvonne xx
Stunning artwork today, and the quote is perfect for it xx
ReplyDeleteBeautiful artwork Valerie with gorgeous colors!
ReplyDeleteSandy xx

ReplyDeleteYou have beautifully illustrated one of my favorite verses and I love these photos too. The sunsets are so beautiful!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous representation of the seasons Valerie! xo
