Towers & Spires
The background was done in Golden acrylics, using cross stencils and masks, and two sizes of puncinella . Xerox copies of English church spires and towers were coloured with water soluble oil pastels and provide not only visual interest but the title as well.I've been working on this one for a couple of weeks and just finished yesterday. Margot helped me figure out how to attach all the large metal bits. The two brass church facades were a swap meet score about a year ago, and the central door I found this summer up in Sebastopol.
A wooden cross surmounts the copper painted door that opens to reveal a picture of a heavy wooden gate topped with a santos angel.
