New Work Wednesday: New Streets

5/1/2013

My new painting this week is entitled New Streets.

©2013 Mary C. Nasser, New Streets, mixed-media/acrylic on canvas, 9 x 12 inches

This painting layers collage, lots and lots of maps, graphite, and acrylic paint with the Old World Map
Series, Celestial and Shooting Stars stencils from Artistcellar on a stretched canvas.

Please click on the photo above to see a larger image.

In this painting, I limited my palette again to neutral colors along with my favorite complementary combination of teal and copper.
I'm really enjoying this process and color scheme!

Thanks so much for visiting my blog!
Hope you're having a wonderful week!
Mary^
