Life is Short

Life is short.

• Make the leap.
• Take the trip.
• Eat the cake.
• Buy the boots.
• Smell the flowers.

And my favorite...buy this painting. 

This piece is 16 x 20 x .7/8” on art board.

The person, the boots and the orange pottery flower are made of pottery.

I made the cake with modeling paste mixed with brown paint. The flowers at the bottom are also modeling paste mixed with paint.

The background is completely collage with pieces of old maps then painted with off-white paint mixed with a glaze to make it more translucent.
