What a friendly place Tag Tuesday is to play!
I was inspired to create using purple, orange and green for this piece.
Out in our garden a big drama is taking place as Spring has arrived and many birds hearts are thinking of love, or lust depending on your viewpoint.
Larry Lorikeet is smitten by Lolita Lorikeet but she doesn't appear interested.
So as the clever bird he is, with a marketing degree no less, he believes in advertising.
Slowly he cruises past Lolita all day, dragging his sign along.
Such a shame she's already got the chicks!
He's dismissed!
My lorikeets are made from Muslin Paper, which has multiple layers of tissue added onto a muslin base.
It's a very sticky process but rather fun to make.
This creates a wonderfully firm paper which die cuts beautifully.
The nest is multi stencilled and the background is a scrap from a colour experiment.
Moral to the story- choose your advertising targets very carefully,
or early bird gets the bird!
