77 Rue de l'Aubergine

77 Rue de l'Aubergine 7.5 x 9"

All set to move in! And every colour of purple you can imagine. I raided the craft acrylics for all the shades and my stash of tiny treasures to fill the empty spots. A paper clay medallion looks down from the attic on dried rosebuds, miniature scoops, chalk pastels, bits of jewelry, paint chips, a vintage ceramic doll head and fabric grapes.

My favourite is the purple hand - I found it at the Goodwill in Port Townsend one year at Art Fest - just one of those weird little scores that make you smile every time you look at it. The #7s are scrapbook findings. I always love doing a piece with a colour theme. Available in October at Open Studios.
