One of my favorite Impressionist artists, is Mary Cassatt, the American known for her touching mother and child portraits. I thought about doing a miniature pastel to fit in a tag to commemorate her work, but the size of a tag seemed a little intimidating for the subject. Therefore, I hand cut a silhouette and framed it in a cameo styled mat with a hinge clip as a topper.
Can't wait to see the other team members' tags! Thanks for all your encouraging comments last week. Blessings!
Very nice! Yes, Mary C's work is exceptional.
ReplyDeleteLovely -- that frame is just divine and I like the bit of "hardware" you added!
ReplyDeleteArnoldo I almost used a Mary Cassatt image for my piece too. Her art has such grace.
ReplyDeleteYour tag is beautiful- the hand cut silhouette tells the perfect story!
A very beautiful tag and the cut out silhouette is so well done and stands out against the frame.
